Ingredients
Title | amount |
Wheat flour, premium | 440 g |
Chicken egg | 4 things. |
Olive oil | 3 tbsp. l |
Common salt | 1 tsp |
Drinking water | 20-40 ml |
Step cooking
- Sift in a deep bowl 400 grams of premium wheat flour. During sifting, the flour is enriched with air, baking is softer.
- Break 4 chicken eggs into a deep plate or large cup. Add 1 teaspoon of salt. Shake the mixture with a fork or culinary whisk.
- Make a depression in the slide of sifted flour. Pour the egg chatter into it.
- Put 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Olive oil can be replaced with any vegetable oil in the same amount, for example, sunflower or corn oil.
- The climbing test requires long-term, thorough kneading - for 10-15 minutes. It should turn out dense, but elastic. If the mass is too steep, add 20-40 ml of drinking water.
- Place the dough ball in a deep bowl, cover with a kitchen towel or tighten with cling film. Leave to proof for 10-15 minutes.
- Place the “rested” dough on the work surface. Divide the lump into 8-10 parts.
- Roll each serving into a very thin layer. The thickness of the formation should be about 1-1.5 mm. When rolling, sprinkle the work surface with flour (40 grams).
- From cardboard or plastic, cut out a template that matches your baking dish. Place the template on the rolled layer, draw a knife around the outline. It is convenient to use a round pizza knife. Repeat with all portions of the dough. Blind the remaining scraps together, knead and form 2-3 more sheets from them.
- Transfer sheets of lasagna to a kitchen towel or cooking paper. Wait until the layer dries a little (3-4 minutes), turn the sheet on the other side.
The undoubted advantage of such sheets cooked at home is the complete absence of any additives, unlike an industrial product. Economically, the dough is several times cheaper than the store counterpart.
