Categories     Pasta

Yield 2 people

Number Of Ingredients 4

200g flour
2 eggs
1 tsp olive oil
1-2tsp freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Simply tip the flour into a bowl and crack on the eggs following closely with the oil & pepper I like to use a fork to bring it all together then knead with my hands until it comes together in a ball which I wrap in cling film and leave for at least thirty minutes if not an hour When chilled, roll out then feed through a pasta machine working down the sizes until you have a thin sheet you can almost see your hand through Now you have a very long strip of pasta, dust very lightly in flour, fold in half over and over until you can't fold any more then slice as thickly or thinly as you like. I like it about in 1cm wide strips Unwind and hang your pasta out to dry on a common or garden hanger, if not a tool especially for the job! Leave at least 30-40 minutes to dry out Bring a large pan of water to the boil, slide in the pasta and cook for probably around 5-6 minutes - once it rises to the surfaces and floats there, it is cooked
