Instructions
For Pasta
Sift the flour and salt.
Beat the eggs with the oil.
Add flour to a large mixing bowl and make a well in the middle. Stir in the eggs and oil with a spoon.
Finish mixing with hands and then knead on a lightly floured surface. Knead until the mixture "comes together".
Flatten dough and shape into a "rectangle". Cover in cling wrap and allow to rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
Roll in a rectangular shape with a pasta press or rolling pin, as thin as you possibly can.
Cut out the edges to make a nice, clean rectangle, dust with a tiny little bit of flour to prevent sticking and fold rectangle in 2 and in 2 again.
Using a sharp chef knife, cut your pasta into thin strips then use your fingers to gently unfold and separate them.
Cook in ample quantity of salted boiling water until pasta is tender but still has a bit of a bite to it, about 4-5 minutes.
For Sauce
Add all the ingredients to your food processor and process until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
When pasta is cooked, transfer it to a large non stick pan and pour sauce over it.
Heat over low-medium heat until sauce starts to thicken and adhere to pasta, about 5 minutes.
Transfer to serving plates and garnish with freshly grated Parmesan and fresh parsley, if desired.
