Gennaro's meat Tortellini
Agnolotti ripieni di carne macinata
by Gennaro Contaldo
from Passione: An Italian Cookbook, with mods
Ingredients:
Basic pasta dough (see EDC)
for the filling
50g parmesan cheese
1 small onion
1 clove garlic
100g beef
100g pork
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
a small handful fresh continental parsely
4 tablespoons white wine
Preparation:
1. Shred the parmesan, place to one side
2. Mince the meats to a coarse texture, set aside
3. Dice the onion, garlic, thyme and parsely
4. Combine all of the above with the white wine.
5. Roll out the pasta dough so thin you can see through it. Cut rounds or squares and place a spoonful of filling on each round. Fold over and then curl around to make a tortellii shape (can't explain this in plain english - for a tutorial, see this youtube clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLv7d8JvnVY&feature=fvst)
6. Heat salted water to 100 deg (10 or so minutes). Add tortellini and cook for 3 minutes on soft speed, reverse mode, or until the pasta is al dente
Serve with sauce of choice. Mushroom/cream sauce or plain tomato will go well with this dish.
Tips/Hints:
I haven't made this in the TMX but have made it the old fashioned way, and they are delicious. I will edit this when I have tried it in the TMX with exact times/speeds.
