Hello, everyone!

Today we will make the best homemade pasta with fried chicken. We will make a whole grain pasta, but if you don’t like whole grain flour or just don’t have it – just use a regular flour. The taste will be great anyway.

So we will need these ingredients to make pasta for 2:

1. Whole grain or regular flour – 90 g. for dough + 10 g. for later
2. Egg – 1 pcs
3. Water – 1 tablespoon or 15 g. (in case you use whole grain flour)

Main ingredients

Let’s take an egg and mix it with 90 grams of flour (whole grain or regular). Mix it well with your hands,and if it is to dry add 1 tablespoon of water. Knead the dough for 10-15 minutes until it stop sticking to your hands. Put the dough into a plastic film and leave it to rest for 25 minutes at the room temperature.

While the dough is resting you can prepare some creamy sauce with seafood or meat (I love pasta with chicken).

25 minutes later…

Take the dough from the plastic film, take a bit of flour and knead it for 1-2 minutes until it will be like on the pictures below.

Our dough is ready, and now we need to roll it up. For this, I use pasta machine that connects to a table. If you don’t have it,  doing it manually works just fine. If you use pasta machine, set roller thickness first to 1 (roll 2 times), then move to 2 and after every roll decrease thickness by 1 until you get to 5 or 2-3 mm (higher value, thinner dough list you will get). Cut ready lists into shape you like or as it is shown on the picture.

Let’s cook the pasta

Take a casserole and boil 2 liters of water in it with ca. 20 gram of salt (4 teaspoons). In the boiling water put all pasta, stir it carefully and cook it for 3 minutes. If your pasta is thicker, cook until it will be ready (just take a bit from casserole and try). Drain the water and serve the pasta with the sauce you like the most or with fried chicken as I do.
