Steps

  1. To a large mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, corn or potato starch, wheat semolina, and salt. Give that a quick mix.
  2. Add the oil and non-dairy milk to the mixture and mix everything up until you've got a nice and smooth batter.
  3. Bring a large pot with salted water up to a boil.
  4. Using a small cutting board and a sharp knife, dunk both into the hot water. Put some of the batter (about a heaping ladle) onto the edge of the cutting board hovering above the boiling water.
  5. Using the knife, slide it through the liquid dough on the cutting board to cut bits out that will drop straight into the boiling water; this creates one bit of pasta.
  6. Allow this batch of pasta to cook for about 3 minutes until cooked through.
  7. Remove the pasta bits using a tiny strainer and transfer them to a bigger strainer so you can rinse them with cold water afterwards to prevent sticking.
  8. Set the cooked pasta aside.
  9. Chop up a few onions.
  10. Bring a large non-stick skillet with some plant-based butter to medium heat.
  11. Let the onion chunks cook until translucent for about 5 minutes.
  12. Add unsweetened cream of choice, fresh parsley, and additional water to adjust the consistency.
  13. Optional: Preheat the oven to 200°C. Transfer the noodles to a buttered oven dish and sprinkle even more cheese on top.
  14. Place the dish on one of the higher oven racks and bake until nice and golden brown.
  15. Serve right away.
