Simple home made gluten free pasta!
October 17, 2022

When we started our gluten free journey, a good pasta was something we missed.  My hubby went on a mission to create a delicious alternative & over the years, he has!  After creating and tasting this, it will be hard to go back. Taking a little extra time than the store bought pasta – it’s not something we do all the time, but when we find some quality time, it’s worth it.  It tastes delicious and as good as the real thing.

You could get the family involved, make it together or make it a new family tradition.  You’ll love the moments made and the meal you create tastes even better.

Home made gluten free pasta!
Preparation:  15 – 20 minutes (lasagna sheets), approx. 10 minutes longer for fettuccine.

Cooking:  When lasagna is assembled, 30 – 35 minutes in the oven (or time it takes to cook lasagna).
If cooking fettuccine, 3 – 4 minutes in boiling water (until it floats to the surface).

Serves:  4 – 6 people

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup potato starch
  • 1/2 cup brown rice flour
  • 1/2 cup corn flour (see notes below re flour alternatives)
  • 1 Tbsp Xanthan gum
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

Directions:

  • Mix dry ingredients together before adding in the eggs and the olive oil.
  • Kneed to a sticky but smooth consistency.  Depending on the consistency add a little more flour or olive oil if required.
  • Cover your hands in flour & the bench top to prevent sticking.
  • Work the dough into balls, a little bigger than the size of a golf ball.
  • Roll each ball into a sausage shape and start to roll out flat.
  • If you have a pasta machine, start feeding through the machine on number 1 (largest setting), keep rolling through to the thinnest setting, right through to setting 8 and the desired thickness of your lasagna sheets that are now ready to use!
  • If you don’t have a machine, roll it out to desired thinness with your rolling pin and cut into lasagne sheets or fettuccine, (takes a little longer without the machine).
  • If making fettuccine, feed the sheets through the cutting setting on your machine or cut into strips yourself.
  • To cook the fettuccine, add to boiling, salted water for about 3 – 4 minutes or until it ‘rises’ in the water.  Strain off the water & enjoy!

Notes;

Alternatively use a good gluten free flour in place of the potato, brown rice flour and corn flour.
