Anyone who knows me knows that I am a big big fan of pasta; spaghetti, macaroni, ravioli, Penne, tortellini, linguine, tagliatelle...and my latest love (Italian movie soundtrack) 🖤le fettuccine🖤 I honestly think I deserve an Italian name by now😂😂(call me Alessia)
Le fettuccine; he is wonderfully crafted, simple but exotic and classy.
This recipe has been long anticipated, so here it is, it's fun and tasking as well(just the kneading part😥)

Steps

1

On a flat surface, measure 200g of flour, mould flour into a cone shape on the flat surface
2

Create a hole in the middle of the flour cone to look like a volcano 🌋; this is called the well method
3

Put unbeaten whole eggs or egg yolks in the middle of the volcano (inside the well)
4

Beat eggs from inside with a fork, adding the flour poco a poco to the egg mixture using the fork.
5

Work the dough when firm enough to work on with hands
6

Keep moulding the dough.
7

Then mould into a ball and oil the surface of the ball with the olive oil
8

Put in a plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 mins
9

Once you press the dough it comes back up and it's elastic
10

Now knead! Make the dough really flat on all sides and cut into desired shape (I chose to make fettuccine, you can choose to make another type of pasta)
