Make your own pasta

Make your own pasta
Follow these easy steps to make your own, fresh pasta from scratch.

Sift the flour into a pile on a work surface. Use 100g flour to 1 egg.  You can multiply these proportions to make more by, for example, using 3 eggs for 300g flour. 
 
Make a well in the centre and crack the egg into it.  

Using your fingers or a fork, break the egg up and mix into the flour slowly incorporating flour from the sides until you have a dough.  You can use a food processor or mixer too.


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 1mm 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. Try our Fresh Pasta with SPAR Tomato and Chilli Pasta Sauce recipe.


Fold 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.
