Homemade Egg Noodles

Since two days ago I have been crazily in love with my new pasta/noodle machine ;-). I got it last Christmas from my MIL, but hadn't had the chance to use it until now. I made two different types of noodles - wide and thin noodles. The taste of the noodles was super good, I was impressed with myself ;-)!

I had tried making noodles on my own before I have this cool pasta machine. It was okay, but my hands were just not skillful enough in cutting the dough into equal length and width, which I think is important in noodle making. Well, now I have this machine the problem is solved...:).

Ingredients (for 2-3 people)

• 300 gr flour
• 2 eggs
• 1 tbs butter/margarine
• 50 ml water

You can change the eggs with water only if you want to make wheat based noodles. The trick is the dough needs to be pliable but not sticky. You have to adjust the amount of water and flour yourself until you find this pliable/non-sticky consistency.

I used the noodles to make Mie Ayam but the more modest version - simply noodles with savoury ground pork and boiled Rucola.
