2 Cups red wine vinegar
1/2 Cup sugar
1/2 Cup mint leaves, whole -- plus
20 Leaves Mint
1 Recipe basic pasta with semolina
6 Tablespoons butter
1 Cup pecorino sardo -- freshly grated

In a 12 to 14-inch saute pan, heat olive oil until smoking. Add onions and
potatoes and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 8 to 10

Roll out pasta to thinnest setting on pasta roller. Cut dough into 3-inch
disks and place 1 tablespoon onion mixture in center of half the disks. Use

filling is used up.

Bring 6 quarts water to boil and add 2 tablespoons salt. Add culingionis

to 14-inch saute pan. Drain pasta carefully and place in pan with butter.
Add mint leaves and half the cheese and toss. Serve immediately.
