| 1. 1) Place the flour on a board or in a bowl. Make a well in the centre and crack the eggs into it. Beat the eggs with a fork until smooth. | 2. 2) Using the tips of your fingers, mix the eggs with the flour, a little at a time, until everything is combined. | 3. 3) Knead the pieces of dough until these all bind together to give you a large smooth lump of dough. | 4. 4) Dust the work surface with some tipo ‘00’ flour. | 5. 5) Take a piece of pasta dough the size of a large orange and press it out flat with your fingertips. | 6. 6) Set the pasta machine at its widest setting - and roll the lump of pasta dough through it. | 7. 7) Click the machine down a setting and roll the pasta dough through again. | 8. 8) Fold the pasta over itself and click the pasta machine back up to the widest setting to roll the dough through again. Repeat this process five or six times. | 9. 9) Once you've rolled your pasta cut the sheets into roughly 4 by 1 inch pieces with a pastry wheel, then lightly dust with flour. Let pasta dry until leathery but still pliable, 5 to 30 minutes. | 10. 1) Pound the garlic with a little pinch of salt and the basil leaves in a pestle and mortar, or place the garlic and basil in a food processor and pulse. | 11. 2) Add the pine nuts to the mixture and mix again. | 12. 3) Gradually pour in the olive oil with the motor running; the mixture will emulsify. | 13. 4) Transfer the pesto to a serving bowl and add the Grana Padano. | 14. 1) Blanch the Stracci, the purple potatoes and string beans for 2 minutes in boiling salt water. | 15. 2) Drain all of the above and mix the pesto into the mixture. Top with Grana Padano. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
