MEXICAN ANGEL HAIR (PASTA)

Steps:

• Pinch the Chorizo sausage into a hot pan with cooking oil. Add diced green pepper. Brown Chorizo sausage. Add water, tomato soup, and all spices/salt. Add angel hair pasta and cook until it is nearly done. Add Rotel tomatoes with lime and cilantro (in the can). Add fat free half & half. Stir in can of refried beans until it dissolves into sauce. Taste and conduct final seasoning. Cook to desired tenderness. Adjust consistency by stirring in water. (Note: You could top this with "queso fresco", but the stuff is, in my experience, flavorless, and this recipe tastes fine to me without the added fat. If you go the "queso fresco" route, you'll want to drizzle some "Mexican Creme" on top of it. You can make "Mexican Creme" by mixing 1 cup sour cream, 1 cup heavy cream, and 1 teaspoon of salt together, and letting it sit for a while before refrigerating. Watch out for bacteria, or you'll have a cheap restaurant, guacamole too long at room temperature, intestinal experience... For the "little different" experience, take a dab of Miracle Whip and liquefy it to a creamy, pour-able texture with some hot water, then drizzle the resulting dressing lightly over the top of the hot pasta, like a hot, Mexican, pasta salad with some spicy and sweet flavor. No harm crumbling "queso fresco" over the pasta before drizzling the Miracle Whip dressing if you're okay with the additional fat.)

ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH PESTO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Combine the basil, pine nuts, garlic, and olive oil in a blender and blend to a puree. Add the cheese, salt and pepper, and blend again.
• Cook the pasta in the boiling, salted water until al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Add the pesto and toss. Taste for salt and pepper, and add a drizzle of oil, if you like.

Steps:

• First, marinate the chicken with soy sauce, vinegar, 5-spice powder, sesame oil and black pepper in a non-metal bowl, set aside.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in salted boiling water according to directions on package (mine says 2 minutes), drain and set aside.
• Heat oil in a wok; once hot saute onions and chillies for 1 minute.
• Add garlic and cook another 30sec.
• Add long beans, then cook for 1 minute.
• Add chicken pieces and stir continuously until they're completely cooked.
• Push the mixture to one side of the wok (if your wok/pan is too small, remove the mixture before proceeding), then pour the beaten egg and cook until set.
• Scramble the egg and combine with the vegetable mixture (in the wok).
• Add the cooked pasta, mix well and add the sauce ingredients.
• Cook for another 3-5 minutes until sauce is well-distributed; taste and adjust seasonings if necessary (I would add some chilli paste and/or tiny bit of soy sauce if necessary).
• If you like, sprinkle with 1/2-1 tsp sesame oil and chopped scallions before serving.

HOMEMADE ANGEL HAIR PASTA

Steps:

• Put 3.75 cups of all purpose flour in a large mixing bowl.
• Create a crater in the middle and break all 5 eggs into the middle of the crater.
• With a fork, blend the flour and eggs together.
• Once it starts to create a doughy mixture, mix it together with your hands. If the flour is not completely binding with the eggs, I add a little water to get it to a good consistency.
• Create a ball of dough from the mixture, dust with some all-purpose flour and cover with a damp paper towel. Wrap the dough and paper towel in plastic wrap and put into the fridge for 1 hour.
• Cut the dough into 3 or 4 pieces. I would suggest 4 pieces for beginners.
• Take one piece of the dough you have previously cut out of the fridge and cover the rest.
• Dust the pasta machine with flour and set the machine at the widest setting. Usually the settings are numbered 1-9, 1 is usually the widest.
• Roll the dough through the machine. Fold in half and repeat. I usually repeat this several times so that the dough has a good consistency.
• Set the pasta maker at the 2 setting and roll the dough through. Move to the next setting and repeat. Gradually the dough will get longer and you will end up with a long sheet. I stop at eigth setting (9 is way too thin).
• With semolina, Dust the dough sheet on both sides and dust a large sheet pan. Cut the sheet of dough to the width of a sheet pan.
• Run the sheets through the cutting attachment on the machine ( i like the angel hair setting, linguine is pretty doughy) and lay down on the dusted sheet pan. Repeat all steps until every piece of dough is cut into angel hair pasta.
• If you don't plan to cook immediately, cover with a well wrung out paper towel and tin foil and put in the fridge.
• Bring a large pot of water, salt and a splash of olive oil to a boil.
• Cook pasta for 2 minutes and drain.
• Mix in a small amount of olive oil to prevent sticking.
• Add to your favorite sauce and enjoy!
