Spinach and Ricotta Tortellini With Ricotta and Herb Sauce image

This is a very quick pasta dish to make that tastes great and makes for a great mid week meal. My son and hubby love this dish, as do I because I can have it on the table in about 20-25 Minutes, which for me is great, when you get in late and do not want to fuss in the kitchen all night.

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

500 g fresh tortellini (I used spinach and ricotta)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, crushed
50 ml white wine
100 ml cream
150 g ricotta cheese
1/2 cup gruyere
2 tablespoons chopped chives
1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
pepper

Steps:

  • Boil some salted water add tortellini, cook until just soft (al dente), drain.
  • Heat oil in a pan, add onion and garlic, cook until onion softens, add wine, cook until almost evaporated, add cream, ricotta and gruyere, stir until cheese melts.
  • Stir in herbs and season with pepper, return pasta to pan, toss to coat in sauce and heat through. If sauce is a little thick just add a little water or extra cream.
  • Serve immediately sprinkle with extra chives and grated Parmesan if desired.
