Egg Noodle Pasta for cozy evenings 🍝

This egg noodle pasta with fresh oregano and nettles is super simple and can be custom-made to use other ingredients such as red pepper, blueberries, and beets! ⁠


Pasta Equipment: ⁠

  • Pasta Machine or Gnocchi Board ⁠

  • Pasta drying rack ⁠

  • Pasta cutting rack ⁠


Ingredients: ⁠

  • 3 cups of flour⁠

  • 3 eggs*⁠

  • 1 tbs of olive oil⁠


Optional:⁠

  • Finely chopped herbs⁠

  • Salt and pepper⁠


*It's really easy to make vegan pasta without eggs! For the nettle pasta (you could use spinach also) you can replace eggs by blending nettle (or spinach) with a bit of water to still make a tasty coloured pasta! ⁠



Instructions:


1.Put the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the middle. Add the eggs and olive oil in the well and any chopped herbs you like.⁠


2. Slowly start to scramble the eggs with a fork, incorporating flour from outside the well as you go. Once it becomes hard to stir with a fork, flour your hand and start kneading the dough with your hands.⁠


3. Knead for 5-8 minutes (alternatively pop it in a kitchen aid with the dough hook). If your dough is still sticky, add more flour and knead until you get a soft consistency that doesn't stick to your fingers. ⁠


4. Once the dough is smooth wrap it in plastic wrap or an airtight container and pop it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. ⁠


5. Take the dough out of the fridge and cut it into 1/4 cup chunks. Take one chunk and leave the others covered with a wet tea towel.⁠


6. Roll out your dough chunk using a rolling pin or pasta machine. If you don't have a pasta machine or board, you can use a knife or pizza cutter to cut it into long noodles, bow ties, or ravioli. Check out Youtube for lots of tips on making pasta without any equipment! ⁠


7. Store your pasta in the fridge for up to 2 days, freeze it, or lay it out to dry (my favourite method). Enjoy with your favourite sauce or as a cold pasta salad with salad dressing and veg! 🍜
