okay slavo since you like pasta here's how to make it fresh


 


take 2/3 to 3/4 cups of flour (depending on the flour), put them on your board, make a mound with a hole in it. take one extra large egg and drop it in the middle of the hole. add 1/4 tsp olive oil.

now with a fork poke the egg yolk and gently whip the egg inside the flour mound and start to incorporate the rest of the flour. once it's got consistency start to knead


 


knead for about 5, 10 minutes gently. warm hands help this.

then make a ball, wrap it in plastic and let it sit there for 20-30 minutes. go make your sauce or something.

come back then at the gluten will have relaxed so it's easy to roll. don't start kneading again or you'l make it tough,


 


then cut it with a knife, though some people have special pasta machines you don't need one.


 


depending on how thin you rolled it it cooks in 2-3 minutes. it's really simple.

if you look for recipes they will all feature lots of flour and many eggs like the fuckin photos above, but you can just go with the proportions i mentioned and use a multiplier. it's lots easier to handle a small recipe and experiment with it.
