Fresh Pasta

20180203_155906

Oh I do love new gadgets that work for you. I got my new pasta attachment for my KitchenAid machine last year and this is the first chance I’ve had to use it. I have to admit I was like a child at Christmas today….lol!

I decided to use the Fettuccine one and make a pasta bake for dinner, I was so pleased and amazed at how easy it is to use. Although I have decided that I need a pasta stand to dry the pasta…….as I use my kitchen doors….lol! #quickthinking

 

Makes enough for about 4 servings

300g ‘OO’ Pasta Flour

3 eggs

1 tsp olive oil

 

  1. Pour flour onto a clean dry surface and make a well.
  2. Crack eggs into the well and gently whisk with a fork, then add the olive oil.                                       pasta
  3. Gradually start to fold in the flour to the eggs until you have a dough
  4. Cover with cling film and refrigerate for about 1 hour.
  5. Break up into small handfuls of balls and flatten out with your hand.  20180203_143102
  6. Attached the Pasta Roller first, lightly sprinkle with flour, on speed 1 and level 1 roll the pasta through about 5 times.
  7. Change the level to no. 3 and roll through about 2 times
  8. Change the level to no. 6 and roll through about 1 or 2 times or until the pasta becomes slightly see through. Put to the side and continue with the rest of the pasta.                                                                 20180203_143914
  9. Change the roller attachment to the Fettuccine attachment and roll the pasta through……voila! Perfect Fettuccine.
  10. Leave to dry out then cook in slightly salted boiling water for only 4-5 minutes.
