Ingredients
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ¾ cup water
Instructions
- In a jug add the oil to the water.
- Add the flour to a work surface or large cutting board in a pile, using your hand make a small well in the middle.
- Pour the water mixture, ¼ cup at a time, into the center of the flour. Using your hands bring the flour and water together to form a dough.
- Add additional water if too dry or a little flour if you find the dough to be too wet.
- When the dough starts to come together begin to knead it until it’s a smooth dough, approximately 5 minutes.
- Wrap in plastic wrap and allow it to rest in the fridge for 30-60 minutes.
- Once rested remove and cut into 4 pieces.
- Working one piece at a time roll the pasta with a rolling pin as thinly as possible, or use a pasta roller to roll the pasta out thin.
- Dust the pasta with flour and fold the dough over itself several times. Slice thinly to make linguine or a little thicker to make tagliatelle pasta.
- Lightly separate the sliced pasta and dust with flour. Arrange the sliced pasta in small mounds on a floured baking tray.
- Repeat with remaining dough.
- Cover and allow the sliced dough to rest for a further 15 minutes at room temperature.
- To cook: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and drop in the fresh pasta. Allow it to cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Drain and serve as desired.
Notes
