Ingredients
- 70 g Flour, all-purpose
- 35 g Eggs
- 160 g Water
- 100 g Beef chuck, raw
- 8 g Olive oil
- 50 g Onion
- 3 g Garlic
- 15 g Tomato paste
- 50 g Red wine
- 0.1 g Bay leaf
- 0.05 g Ground cloves
- 1 g Salt
- 0.2 g Black pepper
- 10 g Hard cheese, grated (Parmesan)
Method
- Knead the flour with the eggs and a few spoonfuls of the water, lukewarm, for 10 minutes into a smooth, firm dough. Wrap it and leave to rest for 30 minutes.
- For the sauce, cut the beef into 2 cm cubes and brown it in the olive oil in a heavy pot for 5-6 minutes. Add the chopped onion and cook for 5 minutes until soft, then the garlic and tomato paste for 1 minute more.
- Pour in the wine and let it bubble for 2 minutes, then add the rest of the water, the bay leaf, cloves, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer gently for 1 hour 30 minutes, until the beef is very tender and the sauce thick, adding a little water if needed.
- Roll the dough out thinly, 1-2 mm, and cut it into squares of about 4 cm.
- Lay a thin wooden stick (or the handle of a wooden spoon) diagonally across one corner of a square, roll it towards the opposite corner and press the tip down to seal. Slide the quill off the stick.
- Cook the fuži in a large pot of boiling water for 4-5 minutes until tender, then drain them.
- Toss them with the beef sauce and serve with the grated cheese.
