This is so worth the initial kneading. It's so tasty and really easy. And really, you can't get much more frugal than this so your piggy bank will thank you too.
Serves 2 people. Easily doubled. Approx 350 calories per serving.
150g Plain flour
1 egg
1 tbsp oil
Handful of wild garlic
Salt and pepper
Method
Put all the ingredients in the food processor and whizz. It should be a nice green dough now.
Pop it on an oiled surface and stretch it, turn it over and stretch it again to make it more workable. Then knead until your dough is nice and smooth and elastic.
Roll the dough out as thinly as you can (if you have a pasta machine, you're luckier than me! Use it!) and slice it into the shape of your choice. I like long fat strands, a bit like tagliatelle.
Pop it all in a pan of salted, boiling water and cook until the desired texture. About 5 mins should do it.
As it's already flavoured, I would favour either no sauce or a scant sprinkling of Parmesan. If you were desperate for a sauce, a tomato base would prob work the best.
