Ingredients

2 large handfuls of plain flour , plus extra for dusting

Method

1

Put the flour in a bowl, then gradually mix in just enough water to bring it together into a ball of dough (if it’s sticky, add a little extra flour).

2

Knead for just a couple of minutes, or until smooth and shiny.

3

On a flour-dusted surface, use a rolling pin to roll out the pasta to about 2mm thick.

4

Dust it well with flour, then loosely roll it up. Use a sharp knife to slice it ½cm thick, then toss it with your hands to separate the strands.

5

Cook in boiling salted water for 2 minutes, then drain and toss with your chosen sauce.
