Have made for the first time and they were delicious! The recipe in the book (Italian Food Safari) is more exact than the one provided on the web. It's a good idea to watch the videos first if you're attempting something new and then cook it from the book. Will make again!

The written recipe doesn't match the recipe seen in the video clip. Aleks, if you followed the written recipe, this may be the cause of your problems. The video clearly shows a lot more butter than 3 tbsp. They also use the zest of 1 lemon as well as orange.
We followed the video and our dough has worked out perfectly. And yes, it smells delicous.
SBS it would be great if the written recipe provided matched the video.

Please help!
I was trying to make these following the above recipe to a T but the dough turned into a disaster. After 40 minutes resting time I could not keep it together, it was completely falling apart when I started knitting it not to mention feeding it through the machine. But because it smelled amazing I tried to fry the bits but there were no bubbles and when I took them out of the frying pan they were dripping in oil. What did I do wrong? Have I may be used too much butter (approx 200gm) because the dough was oily all along. Many thanks, Aleks

Avoiding sticky pasta
To avoid sticky pasta cook in a large pot of rapidly boiling salted water (5 to 6 litres of water to every 500 grams of pasta). Giving the pasta a good stir in the first couple of minutes is also crucial to help avoid sticking.
