  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     3/4   c            Plain flour
   1       pn           Salt
   1 1/3                Eggs
     1/3                Egg
                        -----SAUCE-----
     1/3   ts           Vegetable oil
     1/3   sm           Red chili
     1/3                Spring onion
  83 1/3   g            Snow peas
     1/8   ts           Sesame oil
     1/8   c            Light soy sauce
     1/8   c            Malt vinegar
     1/8   c            Cashew paste
     1/3   tb           Lime juice
     1/3   ts           Lime rind
     1/3                Red Chili
     1/8   c            Roasted Cashews

  Preparation: Lightly beat the eggs (keep the 4 and the
  1 separate)
  
  Finely chop one of the chiles, and the spring onion.
  Thinly slice the snow peas. Finely shred the lime rind
  and the second red chili.
  
  As an alternative to making your own noodles, chinese
  thread noodles are a suitable (but not as nice!)
  substitute, as is tagliatelle.
  
  1. To make the noodles sift the flour and salt into a
  bowl.
     Make a well in the centre and add the 4 beaten
  eggs, gradually
     importing into the flour with a fork. Turn onto a
  lightly
     floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic
  (about 5
     minutes). Cover and stand for 30 minutes.
  
  2. Divide the dough into 4 portions. Cover with a tea
  towel. Roll one
     portion of the dough to 3mm thickness using a
  rolling pin or sharp
     knife. Roll up the sheet of pasta completely and
  cut into 5mm wide
     strips. Carefully unroll the strands.
  
     Repeat the process with the remaining portions of
  dough. Spread onto
     a dry tea towel and sprinkle with plain flour. Set
  aside.
  
  3. Prepare the sauce whilst the pasta is standing.
  Heat the oil in a pan
     and add the chilli, spring onion and snow peas.
  Cook over a low heat
     for 2-3 minutes. Add the sesame oil , soy sauce,
  vinegar, cashew paste,
     lime juice and rind. Stir to combine. Cook,
  stirring, over a gentle
     heat for 3-4 minutes.
  
  4. Cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling water
  until just tender.
     Drain, spoon over the sauce and toss to combine.
  Sprinkle over
     shredded chili, cashews and serve.
