Ingredients
- 200 g flour 00 or all-purpose flour
- 120 g semolina flour or equal amount of flour 00
- 2 medium-large eggs approx 60 g each
- 100 g American sweet potato puree see notes
Instructions
- Place the flour on a clean work surface and create a hollow in the center.
- Break the eggs, place them in the center of the flour together with the sweet potato puree, and start beating them with a fork, incorporating more and more flour while you do that.
- Once you have a well-mixed mixture, knead it with your hands for about 15 minutes until you have a smooth and elastic dough.
- Wrap the pasta dough in cling film and let it rest in a cool dry spot in your kitchen, for 30 minutes.
- Cut the dough in four equal pieces, leaving the remaining dough well covered to prevent it from drying out.
- Sprinkle with a little flour a clean work surface, and roll the dough to create a thin sheet, about 42 cm/ 16-inch wide.
- Dust the surface with a little more flour and roll the dough on itself, like a swill roll.
- With a sharp knife, cut strips about 1 cm/ ⅓-inch wide in order to make tagliatelle pasta. Repeat the process with the remaining pasta dough.
- Gently unroll the homemade pasta obtained, taking care to do it quickly to prevent the dough from drying out.
- Cook the homemade sweet potato pasta immediately, or form little nests of pasta with your hands and arrange them on a tray dusted with semolina, to let them dry slightly. You can then store it in the fridge and use it within 12 hours, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
Notes
- How to make American sweet potato puree:
- Steam: Simply place halved sweet potatoes in a steamer, and steam for 10-15 minutes or until soft.
- Air-fry: Pierce the sweet potato all over with a fork, then cook in the air-fryer for 35-40 minutes at 180°C/375°F.
- Roast: Use a fork to poke holes all over the sweet potatoes, place them on a baking sheet, and roast for 40 minutes or until fork tender at 180°C/375°F.
- Once the sweet potato is cooked through, transfer to a bowl and mash and mix with a whisk until creamy, or transfer to a food processor and blend until creamy.
