Ingredients for 4 people
320 g Tortellini mignon
400 g rapini
3 spring onions
3 fresh basil leaves
100 g caciocavallo podolico cheese
3 potatoes
vegetable broth to taste
salt and pepper to taste
Procedure
Thinly slice spring onions and potatoes, and put them in a pot with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Leave to flavour and then cover with hot vegetable broth, basil leaves, salt and pepper and leave to cook over a low flame.
In the meantime, clean and wash the rapini. Place them in a non stick pan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and let cook slowly. When the potato cream is ready, blend it all in a blender until you get a smooth, soft cream.
In a saucepan with plenty of salted water, cook Tortellini mignon and, once ready, drain and sauté them in a pan with rapini. Arrange the cream of potatoes and spring onions into a mirror shape and then on top of this arrange the Tortellini mignon seasoned with rapini. Decorate with the Caciocavallo Podolico cheese and serve.
