Homemade pasta orecchiette with stew of vegetables and beans

Description

I love all kinds of homemade pasta, it is often on our table. Usually prepared with eggs and flour, and the post decided to make the dough on the flour and water. And it turned out no worse, very tasty! Orecchiette is a pasta from Puglia, similar to the lugs. To it add semolina or semolina, which gives it a special taste. In order for her to do, it requires a little skill and a lot of patience =) But the result is worth it! Especially if you cook her a delicious stew. Stew, I decided to do Ratatouille only with the addition of beans. Came out just fabulous! Hearty, delicious, rich vegetable dish!

Cooking

Flour mixed with semolina (or semolina), add a little salt and sift onto a clean surface of the table slide. In the slide to make a small crater in the center.

Pour in a little water. Gently use a fork to stir the water, collecting the flour from the edges.

Add a little more water and turmeric (the turmeric I use just for color, so this is an optional ingredient). And to continue to collect the flour from the edges with a fork, adding the water.

Water may need more or less, so do not pour all at once. Add gradually, kneading the dough is with your hands. It should be smooth and uniform. The dough for pasta like long kneading at least 10 minutes until it becomes elastic. Gather the dough into a ball, sprinkle with flour, cover with clingfilm and leave in a cool place at least half an hour.

Tear off a small piece of dough and roll it into a thin harness. Cut it into small roundels.

Now the most interesting, but time-consuming process. Each piece must be properly dusted with flour, to him it was easier to work with.

Thumb pressure on the flat side roundels, push and a little pressing to hold down to the table. Thus, to get a little ear thinner in the center and thicker at the edge.

Ready orecchiette how to sprinkle with flour and place in a bowl and let them dry out a bit. Periodically shake the bowl to make sure they don't stick together.

Meanwhile, cook the stew. Pre-soaked beans, boil in lightly salted water until fully cooked. It should remain solid, but completely soft inside. It took me about 3 hours.

Eggplant cut into cubes, lay out on towel and sprinkle with salt. Leave for 10-15 minutes for the eggplant gave the juice, and with it the bitterness.

Onions and carrots cut into small cubes.

Red bell pepper and zucchini on the same cubes as the eggplant.

In a pan heat vegetable oil and fry a couple of cloves of garlic. The oil will turn out very fragrant and delicious.

Throw the garlic and add to the pan the eggplant, pre-dipped paper towel. Fry the eggplant until it will turn brown and put them in a bowl.

In the same pan fry the onion and carrot until transparent bow. If necessary, add a little more oil.

Then add zucchini and pepper.

Fry all together 5-7 minutes until it will turn brown vegetables.

Add the vegetables to the beans. Stir and fry another 3-4 minutes.

Add to vegetables three tomatoes without the skin. I have tomatoes from the jar in their own juice. I poured some juice out of them. Tomatoes cut directly in the pan with the edge of a blade so that they remain together.

Then add the fried eggplant before, to extinguish all together for another couple of minutes.

Salt and pepper the stew. Boil pasta in salted water for 3-4 minutes. You can apply put a stew on pasta or mix it all together. Top sprinkle with finely chopped parsley.
