• How to make lasagne sheets by hand:
• Place your flour onto a work surface. Make a well in the centre, crack your eggs into the well and add in the salt.
• Use a fork to beat the eggs. Slowly incorporate the surrounding flour, to produce the dough.
• Use a scraper to bring in the remaining flour. Pull it towards the centre into the dough. If the dough is too stiff all you need to do is add water. Add it one tablespoon at a time as needed.
• Once the dough forms a ball, knead for about 10 minutes. Knead until it becomes smooth and soft.
• Shape your dough into a ball and place it in a bowl. Cover the bowl with cling film and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Divide the dough into three equal portions. Use a rolling pin to flatten your dough, turning it regularly, until it reaches a thickness of 1mm.
• Use a pastry knife to cut out rectangular sheets. The best part about making homemade lasagne sheets is the opportunity to cut them to the shape and size of your chosen dish.
• Air dry for about 30 minutes. Place your sheets onto a clean, floured cloth to dry.
