1/2 cup soya flour
1/2 cup ground linseed
1 egg (I use Burford Browns because they have a lovely yellow yolk)
1 tblsp oil (I used light olive oil)
2 tblsp cold water
1/2 tsp salt
Combine all of the above. Wrap the ball of dough in clingfilm and rest. Lightly flour a board, roll out and cut into strips. Leave to dry a bit (I left mine overnight)
Sauce
2 rashers of smoked streaky bacon (chopped finely and fried)
1 egg
2 tblsp double cream
1 tblsp finely grated pecorino cheese (or parmesan)
Lots of freshly milled pepper
Mix together egg, cream, cheese and seasoning.
Bring a large pan of salted water to a good boil. Drop the pasta into the water and cook for 3-4 minutes. Drain, quickly return pasta to the hot pan and add the bacon. Mix in the other ingredients and the residual heat in the pan will cook the sauce. Eat immediately.
Surprisingly like wholewheat pasta. I'll definitely be making it again.
NB: I have a second version in the fridge. It uses oat flour rather than ground linseed. More experimentation in the pipeline.
