Homemade Egg Noodles

Homemade Egg Noodles

2 cups flour (all purpose)

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 medium eggs

1/4 cup water

In a large bowl combine the flour and salt. Make a hole in the flour, like a well. Crack the eggs into the hole. Using you hands or large spoon mash the eggs and flour together making a coarse and crumbly mixture. Add the water. Mix again until you have a nice, stiff dough. 

Knead the dough a few minutes to get it nice and smooth (5-10 min.) You may need to dust it with a little flour to keep it from sticking to your hands. When you are satisfied with your ball of noodle dough cover it with a tea towel and let it rest for about 20 minutes. This is to relax the gluten in the dough, making it easier to roll out.

Use a rolling pin and a floured surface roll dough out real thin, as the noodles will poof out when they cook. Cut into strips or the the shape you want. Let the noodles rest and dry for about 20-30 min if you can. Cook in a broth that's boiling and then reduce to simmer for 25-30 minutes.

Ingredients

Ingredient Checklist

• 4 (4 ounce) slices of pork tenderloin, cut across the grain
• 1 egg, beaten
• 2 tablespoons milk
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
• ¼ teaspoon onion powder
• ¼ teaspoon seasoned salt
• ¼ teaspoon dried marjoram
• ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 ½ cups bread crumbs
• ½ cup peanut oil for frying
• 4 Kaiser rolls, split
• 4 teaspoons mayonnaise, or as needed 
• 4 teaspoons ketchup, or as needed (optional)
• 4 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard, or as needed (optional)
• 4 leaves lettuce (optional)
• 4 slices tomato (optional)
• 4 slices onion (optional)
• 4 slices pickle, for garnish (optional)

Directions

Instructions Checklist

• Step 1

  Place each slice of pork tenderloin between two pieces of sturdy plastic (such as a cut-up large plastic freezer bag), and flatten the cutlet until it's about 1/4 inch thick, and about 3 1/2 by 5 inches in size.

• Step 2

  Beat the eggs and milk together in a shallow bowl, and whisk in the garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, marjoram, oregano, salt, and pepper until the spices are well blended into the mixture. Place the bread crumbs in a shallow bowl.

• Step 3

  Dip each flattened cutlet into the seasoned milk-egg mixture and then into the bread crumbs, thoroughly coating the cutlets with crumbs. Set the breaded cutlets aside on a piece of parchment or waxed paper; do not stack.

• Step 4

  Heat the oil in a large skillet until the oil is shimmering. Gently lower the cutlets, one at a time, into the hot oil, and fry until golden brown on each side, about 8 minutes per cutlet. Drain the cutlets on paper towels.

• Step 5

  Preheat oven broiler, and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.

• Step 6

  Spread the Kaiser rolls open with the cut sides up, and broil until the rolls are toasted and hot, about 1 minute. Top each roll with a fried cutlet (hopefully the sides of the meat will hang out of the roll by at least an inch on each side); top each cutlet with choice of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, lettuce, tomato, onion, and a pickle slice, if desired.

How to make THE BEST crispy and tasty low carb cauliflower pizza crust with foolproof step by step video recipe.

• Author: Olena of ifoodreal.com
• Prep Time: 30 minutes
• Cook Time: 30 minutes
• Total Time: 1 hour
• Yield: 8 slices 1x
• Category: Dinner
• Method: Oven
• Cuisine: North American

Ingredients

• 1 medium head of cauliflower (6″ – 7″ wide or 2.5–3 lbs) or 5-6 cups of store bought cauliflower rice
• 1 egg, large
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning (dried oregano or basil)
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• 1/2 cup Parmesan or Mozzarella cheese, grated/shredded
• Cooking spray (I use Misto)*

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper or silicone mat.
2. Rinse cauliflower, remove the outer leaves, separate into florets and chop into smaller pieces. Process in a food processor in 2 batches, until “rice” texture forms (skip if using store-bought “rice”). Transfer cauliflower rice on a prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 mins.
3. Remove cooked cauliflower rice from the oven, transfer to a bowl lined with a double/triple layered cheesecloth or linen towel, and let cool for 5 minutes. Then squeeze the liquid out of the ball (cauliflower inside the cheesecloth) as hard as you can. Be patient and do this a few times until barely any liquid comes out. Muscle work.:)
4. Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees F. In a medium mixing bowl whisk the egg with dried herbs, salt and pepper for 10 seconds. Add cheese and squeezed cauliflower; mix very well with spatula until combined.
5. Line same baking sheet with new parchment paper or silicone mat (just make sure to scrape off any bits of cauliflower) and spray with cooking spray. Transfer cauliflower pizza dough in the middle and flatten with your hands until thin pizza crust forms. Make it thicker that in my video, I made it a bit too thin.
6. Bake for 20 minutes, carefully flip with spatula and bake for a few more minutes.
7. Top cauliflower pizza base with your favourite toppings and bake again until cheese on top turns golden brown.
8. Slice and enjoy.

Store: Refrigerate covered for up to 2 days.

Freeze: Tightly wrapped in plastic for 1 month.

Notes

You could cook cauliflower rice in a microwave (I just don’t have one) adjusting time according to your microwave’s abilities (they all differ).
