Crispy Semolina Noodles image

What started as an innocent experiment with semolina dumplings, somehow turned into a surreal crepe-pasta-spaetzle-noodle-chow mein hybrid. Serve with a little salt and grated Parmesan cheese.

Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large egg, beaten
½ cup milk
salt to taste
1 pinch white sugar, or to taste
½ cup semolina flour
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste

Steps:

  • Whisk egg, milk, salt, and sugar together in a bowl. Add semolina flour and whisk until combined.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a griddle or pan over medium heat. Drop ladlefuls of batter in batches into the hot pan and fry until set and golden, 2 to 4 minutes, flipping halfway. Remove from the pan and let cool enough to handle, about 5 minutes.
  • Roll up pancakes and thinly slice into "noodles."
  • Heat remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil in the same pan over medium heat. Add pepper flakes and "noodles." Pan-fry until almost crisp, 2 to 4 minutes.
