Peadar,
I can't remember the brand name, but it's exactly like the link, alright.
You could get the ravioli tray, or just put dollops of filling on one sheet of pasta, egg around each dollop, another sheet on top, press around each one to seal, then cut it with a knife, or with one of those fancy pastry cutters to get the zigzag look.
You would manage without the pasta maker if you make up the dough and roll it out pretty thinly.
300g Strong Flour
3 large eggs
pinch of salt
Knead. Rest Knead & roll.
Just stolen ur recipe for my son....he's looking for a nice italian chicken receipe for the grandparents!
True but at least it only going to be your own hair in it if home made.. could of gone down a awful road but won't....Quote:

we have a pizza day in work once a month and they get dominos oh christ they are awful.
Anyone know where to get the Tipo 00 flour that is reccomended for making pasta? I usually just sive it over and over until its really fine.
Also anyone have the book Silverspoon? I got it a few months ago, its great. Its the most bought cookbook by Italian housevives for the last 50 years so you know its gotta be good. It was only translated into English last year for the first time.
Funny Dylan & I were trying to figure out where to get that flour yesterday and he said he was just gonna have to sieve it extra!
Must look out for that book Partisan. Since he was bout 7 Dylan has wanted to move to Italy and become a chef. Strange since he was sensitive to wheat up until the last yr or so and could only eat coellaic pasta and pizzas and if you have ever had them u know they aint great.
I just use Strong flour. Readily available.
Magicme, that's the basic recipe. Use good fresh eggs, free range if possible. If it's a little dry sprinkle with a couple of drops of water. Like pizza bases etc., after kneading leave to rest for an hour or so (in clingfilm in the fridge will do nicely).
You can also freeze it. Cut portion sizes of tagliatelli, toss in a little flour, lay on a tea towel and freeze. I also batch and freeze pizza bases. Handy things to have in the freezer. Rolling/cutting pasta is great fun for kids (of all ages).
As is the pizza base, you just can't help giving it a toss into the air like you'd see on tv and in real pizzeriasQuote:

Right, so I don't need any fancy pasta machine, just roll it very thinly.
I'm sure I could improvise on the Ravioli thing.
Absolutely love Spinach & Ricotta Ravioli!
No bother obviously seasoning is to ones taste and the chicken is in cubes.Quote:

Because Yoghurt is classified as being similar to cheese in composition and Ice Cream is frozen cream which is in the milk category.
Meant to say that if you are in the English Market down home in Cork there is a stall there that sell very good fresh pasta, his sauces are very good as well. Think he's still there anyway.
The English Market is heaven for food lovers!
