The simplest, but also one of my favorite versions of tortelloni. It's incredible how a few sage leaves and a knob of butter can give such an intense flavor
Mix the flour and eggs until a smooth dough is formed. Note: the dough may not be perfectly smooth
2
Let the dough rest for half an hour, covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator, to allow the eggs to be fully absorbed by the flour
3
Prepare the filling by mixing ricotta, grated Parmigiano Reggiano, nutmeg, and a bit of salt in a bowl
4
Roll out the dough to a not-too-thin thickness. Cut it into your preferred size and shape, and fill with the ricotta mixture, using a piping bag for ease
5
Cook the tortelloni in abundant salted water. The cooking time depends on the thickness of the pasta; they will be ready one minute after they float to the surface
6
Heat the butter and sage leaves over medium heat in a large pan
7
Drain the tortelloni and sauté them in the pan with the butter and sage for one minute or until they are glossy and creamy
Cost
This is definitely a simple and economical recipe, with each portion costing about two euro
Health
Butter adds some calories, but there aren't many other fats among the ingredients. Try not to overdo it with the sauce and don't feel guilty about asking for seconds
