Ecomely’s estimate, calculated from the ingredients with the ANSES Ciqual food composition table, excluding sides and seasoning added to taste.

Instructions

  1. Pour the flour onto the work surface, make a well and crack the eggs into it with the oil and a little salt.
  2. Gradually knead in the lukewarm water until you have a smooth, firm dough. Let it rest for 30 minutes under a cloth.
  3. Roll the dough out into a thin rectangle, then cut strips about 1 cm wide.
  4. Wrap each strip around a thin metal rod or a straw to form tubes, then slide the rod out.
  5. Sauté the onion and garlic in a little oil, add the sliced mushrooms for 5 minutes, then the tomatoes, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  6. Cook the pljukanci for 3 to 4 minutes in salted boiling water, drain them and toss them with the sauce. Serve with Parmesan.

Variations and tips

Truffle version. Add a few truffle slices or a little truffle oil to the sauce at the end of cooking.
