9 LESSON FOUR HAND MADE PASTA WITH A FRESH TOMATO SAUCE Ingredients 80g strong bread flour or plain flour, plus extra to dust 1 medium eggs 50 ml (2 fl oz) olive oil 1 tin of chopped tomatoes 1 pack of fresh tomatoes 1 small onion Garlic A SEALABLE JAR FOR THE SAUCE AND A FOOD BAG FOR THE FRESH PASTA Method 1. Put the flour, egg and a tiny pinch of salt onto the work top. Make a crater and crack the egg on not it. Mix the egg with a fork then use your hand to mix the dry with the wet. Use a circular action and just one hand. Bring together and knead well for a few minutes - it will be stiff. Wrap in clingfilm and chill for 30min. 2. Whilst the pasta dough is resting, make your tomato sauce. Finely chop your onion and garlic. Sauté them gently in olive oil over a medium heat. Roughly chop your fresh tomatoes-add them to the pan to cook and soften. Add your tinned tomatoes to the pan. Rinse the tin through with a little water and pour it into the pan. Stir everything through and bring to the boil. Taste and season. 3. When your dough has rested, it is time for the rolling. To roll your pasta by machine (if rolling by hand, see below), take ⅓ of the dough (keeping the

10 rest covered) and knead a few times to help work the elasticity. Dust with a little type 00 flour and form into a rough rectangle. Feed it through the thickest setting of the pasta machine a few times, folding it and turning it to get it into a regular shape. (This is important, as it will also improve elasticity.) 4. Start feeding your pasta through the machine, narrowing the setting after each rolling. Try to support the pasta with the back of your hand as its coming through to prevent it ripping, and dust with a little more flour if sticking. You want to get the dough thin enough that you can see your hand through it when you hold it underneath. 5. Put the rolled-out dough on a lightly floured surface and flour the pasta. Lightly roll pasta from each end to meet in the middle. Cut across the rolls into strips of your chosen size. Unroll the long strips and trim to about 30.5cm (12in) lengths (don't worry if they're irregular, you won't notice once they're cooked). Alternatively, cut the pasta into whatever shape you like. 6. Hang your pasta ribbons to dry over two cooling racks leaned together, on clean coat hangers or on floured trays. Leave other shapes of pasta to dry on baking trays lined with parchment paper. Repeat rolling, cutting and drying with remaining dough. The pasta is ready when it feels leathery. Bag and chill.

11 LESSON FIVE CHEAT'S PUFF PASTRY AND CHEESE TWISTS Ingredients 300g/10½oz plain flour pinch salt 50g/1¾oz butter, chilled and cut into cubes 120g/4½oz butter, frozen 1 small pack of cheddar cheese 1 small block of Parmesan 1 small jar of tapenade or sun-dried tomato paste 1 pack of streaky bacon or Parma ham[optional] A CONTAINER TO TAKE IT HOME IN Method 1. Mix the flour and salt together in a bowl. Rub in the chilled butter using your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Gradually add enough water to form a dough (about 4-6 tablespoons of water). 2. Roll the dough out into a rectangle on a lightly floured work surface. Grate half of the frozen butter over the bottom two thirds of the dough. Fold down the top third and fold up the bottom third as if folding a letter. 3. Turn the folded dough through 90 degrees and roll it out into a rectangle again. Repeat the process of adding the remaining frozen butter and fold as before. 4. Wrap the dough in cling film and leave to rest in the fridge for 15 minutes before using.

12 5. Whilst the pastry is resting, grate your cheeses onto your green chopping board. Remove your pastry from the fridge and roll it out as thinly as possible. Spread your pastry with the tapenade, sprinkle over the two cheeses. 6. Cut your pastry sheet into strips [place a strip of bacon/ham onto teach strip] then twist each strip and place on a large baking tray. Cook for 20 mins. Cool and chill.
