Sweet Potato Tagliatelle with Charred Radicchio, Walnuts, Goat Cheese, and Mint
- Pasta
- 3 cups Flour
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 large Cooked Sweet Potato peeled and mashed
- Salt
- Toppings
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic minced
- 1 head radicchio
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts toasted
- 1 cup crumbled goat cheese
- 2 tablespoons Chopped Mint
Instructions
- Make the pasta - Mix 2 cups of the flour, eggs, olive oil, sweet potato, and salt in a bowl and stir to combine. Add more flour until you form a dry stiff dough. Use a pasta maker to roll out the dough, starting with the thickest setting. Roll the dough, then fold it onto itself and repeat until the dough rolls out smoothly. Then switch to the next thinner setting and roll it out again, slowly going down a notch or two at a time until you end on the third thinnest setting. Cut the pasta into thick strips and allow to dry on a towel with plenty of flour.
- Slice the radicchio into thin wedges and lay them out onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with some oil, season with salt and pepper. Broil on high for about 5 minutes to char.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and a frying pan to medium heat. Melt the butter in the pan and add the garlic. Simmer for 3 minutes and turn off the heat.
- Drop the pasta into the boiling water and cook about 2-5 minutes until tender. Remove from the water and add directly to the frying pan. Toss to coat with the butter.
- Add the radicchio and walnuts to the pan and toss.
- Serve the pasta and top with the goat cheese and mint.
