Method
-
Sift the flour into a pile on a work surface. Make a well in the centre and crack the egg into it.
-
Using your fingers, break the egg up and mix into the flour slowly incorporating the flour from the sides until you have a dough. You can use a food processor or mixer instead.
-
Knead the dough until smooth. This takes 6 – 10 minutes.
-
Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough. Fold and re roll several times until you can roll the dough to 1 mm thick. You can also use a pasta machine to roll the dough.
-
Using a round scone cutter cut circles in the pasta.
-
Place a small spoonful of filling on the centre. Fold pasta over to make a half circle. Take the two corners and press together folding the back over to form a pirate’s hat shape. Continue until all filling and pasta has been used up.
-
Follow the instructions on the SPAR Pasta Sauce packaging to make the tomato and chilli sauce.
Recommended Wine: With its mouth-watering green and bell pepper aromas, underscored with subtle asparagus and citrus scents, Olive Brook Sauvignon Blanc is great when served with pasta dishes.
