Pasta For One?

You’ve been craving pasta all day, only to get home and discover the pantry is bare! But before you hop in the car and battle traffic, here’s a better idea—make your own from scratch. It’s faster than you think, and this easy recipe whips up just enough for one generous serving or two lighter plates.


You will need:

1/2 cup “00” flour for extra silkiness

1 large egg yolk

A few drops of olive oil for extra elasticity



  1. Make the dough

On a clean surface or in a small bowl, pile the flour and make a well in the center.

Add the egg and oil.

Using a fork, gently whisk the egg, slowly pulling flour in from the sides until it becomes a shaggy dough.

  1. Knead

Knead with your hands for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

If sticky, dust lightly with flour; if dry, add a few drops of water.

  1. Rest

Wrap in plastic wrap (or cover with a bowl) and rest at least 30 minutes at room temp.

  1. Roll & Shape

Roll out with a rolling pin until very thin (about 1–2 mm).

Cut into strips.

  1. Cook

Boil in well-salted water for 2–3 minutes until just tender.

Toss with your sauce of choice immediately.
