The sauce is made first .
All you need is 4 ingredients for the sauce , wine , meat , oregano and 1 whole onion .
The sauce is made very quickly , toss the meat in a large pan with torn oregano and move the meat around till browned .
Now pour in the red wine , enough to cover the meat sufficiently .
Put the whole peeled onion in the pan with the wine and meat , remove the onion with a slotted spoon once it is tender .
Bring to a gentle simmer and continue to cook and allow to reduce .
Now for the pasta.
Please use a plastic bowl as plastic won't make the pasta go cold , or make the pasta straight on a wooden table .
Pour 1kg of 00 flour ( this is a hard wheat flour and high in protein , pasta made with a tender grain breaks easily and hard to get al dente ) into the bowl or onto the wooden table .
Make a well in the centre of the flour and add 10 lightly beaten eggs and 2 yolks.
Now start pulling the flour into the middle to cover the eggs and then work the eggs through to bring it all together .
The colour of the pasta comes from the eggs , once a smooth ball of dough forms , start to push the dough with the heel of your hand and then pull it back into shape .
Continue to push the dough and stretch it to its limit it will go back into itself .
The longer you knead the dough it will become silky smooth .
Now let the pasta dough rest , pour yourself a glass of wine , as it will soon be time to roll out the pasta .
It is essential that you have a clothes horse set up near your work bench to lay the pasta over to dry .
Cut off a slice of the dough , press the dough flat and feed the dough through the rollers of your pasta machine .
Sprinkle the dough loosely with a little flour to prevent the pasta getting too sticky.
Once your have the desired thickness , feed the flattened dough through the cutting blades of the pasta machine and catch the ribbons and lay them over the clothes horse to dry .
When you are ready to eat .......
Boil a large pan of salted water and add pasta to cook till just al dente .
Drain and drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice , heat the sauce through and serve over the top of the pasta .
Enjoy .
