Instructions

  1. Make the dough by mixing the flour, salt and lukewarm water until you get a firm dough. Knead for 5 minutes, then let it rest for 20 minutes under a cloth.
  2. Roll the dough into a thin sheet, dust it with flour, roll it up and cut wide strips about 1 cm across. Unroll them to separate.
  3. Cut the carrots into thin sticks and slice the onions. Chop the garlic.
  4. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and sear the meats over high heat for 5 minutes, stirring until browned.
  5. Add the onions, carrots and garlic, cook for 5 minutes over medium heat, then season.
  6. Cook the noodles in a large pan of boiling salted water for 3 to 4 minutes, drain them, then add them to the pan and toss for 2 minutes to reheat and coat.

Variations and tips

Potato version. Add potatoes cut into cubes with the carrots for a heartier dish.

With what you can find here. Fresh Asian noodles or wide pasta such as tagliatelle can replace the homemade dough if you are short on time.
