Ingredientes
- 400 g tortellini (14 oz)
- 300 g tomato passata (1 1/4 cups)
- 3 tablespoons cooking cream
- 120 g mozzarella (4 oz)
- 60 g Parmigiano Reggiano. Try this Italian Parmigiano Reggiano DOP 36 Months (3/4 cup, grated )
- 5-6 leaves basil (fresh)
- salt (to taste)
- pepper (to taste)
Modo de preparo
- 1
Cook the tortellini in plenty of lightly salted water. Drain with a slotted spoon, place in a bowl and season with a tablespoon of oil to prevent them from sticking together. Toss and set aside.
- 2
Dice the mozzarella. If the mozzarella is too watery, drain as much of the liquid as possible. I chose pizza mozzarella, which does not release liquid.

Add: Get a baking dish that can comfortably hold the tortellini in a single layer so that they do not overlap (too much). Pour 3 tablespoons of cream in the bottom of the dish. Then add the tortellini and stir.

Add the tomato passata, season with salt and add a grind of black pepper. Stir then add the diced mozzarella.
- 5
Add: Finish with a sprinkling of grated Parmigiano and a few fresh basil leaves.

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 20 minutes, until the cheese is completely melted and a light crust has formed on top.

Serve: Remove the dish from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Your Baked Tortellini are done.
