Let’s talk about tagliatelle…

Serves
4

Ingredients
– 245g egg yolks
– 375g strong white flour
– 2tbsp oil
– 1tbsp water
– Good pinch of table salt

Method

1. In a bowl combine the egg yolks with salt oil and water then mix well

2. Add the flour in one go and start mixing to a breadcrumb stage

3. Once the crumb stage comes, tip the mix onto a table and knead it until it comes together

4. Wrap tightly with film and leave to rest for 30 mins

5. Divide your dough into two

6. With a rolling pin, begin to roll the dough into a neat strip approximately 15cm wide – you want the dough to be rolled evenly and about 1mm thick

7. Once rolled, take a table knife and start cutting strips of pasta approx. 1cm wide

9. Cook in boiling water for 3 minutes if fresh, or if you choose to dry the pasta it will take longer to cook

9. Enjoy…
