BANANA PASTA
 
1 cup banana pulp
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
2 cups semolina flour
 
Blend the banana, sugar, vanilla and egg together.  Blend in the
flour.  Knead into a smooth ball (add small amounts of ice water
if required).  Knead the dough for 15 minutes and allow to rest
for an additional 15 minutes.  Roll out the dough.  Lightly dust
with flour, fold in 3, and roll out again.  Repeat 6 to 8 times.
Now pass the dough through the pasta machine setting the rollers
gradually down until you reach the desired thickness.  The result
should be a smooth sheet of dough ready to process as you require.
Pass through a pasta machine, or cut by hand to desired size.  If
processed by hand, simply roll the dough and cut into thin strips
for noodles (fettuccini).
