Tortellini Panna Food

TORTELLINI ALLA PANNA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water on the stovetop to a boil. While it heats, add butter to a large skillet set over low-medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add minced garlic and saute for 1 minute.
• Once the garlic is sauted, pour in the cream and add the nutmeg, pepper, basil, and parsley. Stir frequently as the cream heats and begins to thicken. Adjust the temperature as needed so the mixture doesn't reach a boil or bubble too much.
• Once the pot of water is boiling, add the frozen tortellini and cook for 3 minutes, or according to package directions. Add the frozen peas to the pot with the pasta after 2 minutes, so when there's 1 minute remaining of cook time. Once cooked, drain the water and return the tortellini and peas to the pot.
• Add the grated Parmesan to the skillet with sauce in two increments, stirring well after each addition so it melts. Once the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened to your liking, add the cooked tortellini and peas, as well as the sliced prosciutto, and stir to coat. Serve immediately.

TORTELLINI ALLA PANNA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of slightly salted water to boil.
• Once water is boiling add tortellini. Cook according to directions on the package. Stick to that time precisely or even reduce it by 1 minute to avoid that tortellini fall apart when you add them to the sauce.
• While you're waiting for water to boil to cook tortellini in, prepare the cream sauce.Place a pan over medium heat, add a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (you can substitute it with butter if you prefer).
• Add heavy cream and stir. Once you see first bubbles reduce the heat, add nutmeg and stir again.Cook for about 2 minutes until the sauce has slightly reduced, it should be still liquid. Turn the heat off.
• Once tortellini are ready, reserve a cup or a little less of their cooking liquid.Drain tortellini and add to the pan with the cream sauce.
• Turn on the heat and toss everything in the pan until the sauce has coated tortellini (it'll take about a minute or so).
• Remove the pan from the heat and add Parmesan cheese, stir until tortellini are well covered with the creamy sauce.If tortellini dry out a bit add a few tablespoons of previously reserved pasta cooking liquid (that should be warm but NOT boiling by now).Give everything another good toss in the pan.
• Serve immediately with fresh ground pepper.
