Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center.
  2. Slowly pour the warm water and olive oil into the well. Mix with a fork until the dough comes together.
  3. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  4. Shape the dough into a ball and wrap it in a plastic wrap. Allow it to rest for 20 minutes at room temperature.
  5. After resting, unwrap the dough and cut it into two equal portions.
  6. Take one portion of the dough and flatten it with your hands. Roll it out using a rolling pin into a thin sheet, about 1/8 inch thick.
  7. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the rolled-out dough into desired pasta shapes, such as fettuccine or spaghetti.
  8. Repeat the rolling and cutting process with the remaining portion of the dough.
  9. Once all the pasta is cut, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  10. Carefully add the pasta to the boiling water and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until al dente.
  11. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked pasta to a serving dish or directly toss it with your desired sauce.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious eggless pasta!
