🍝 Tips & Tricks for Perfect Sun-Dried Tomato and Mushroom Tortellini

Sear for maximum flavor
Take the time to brown the mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes well before adding any liquid — that’s where all the deep, rich flavor comes from.

Mix your cheeses
Combine parmesan and pecorino for the perfect balance of creamy and salty. You can also add a spoonful of ricotta for an even silkier texture.

Add a touch of freshness
Top your dish with fresh basil or parsley right before serving to brighten up the creamy sauce.

Adjust the sauce consistency
If the sauce gets too thick, just stir in a bit of warm broth to bring it back to a smooth, velvety texture.

Serve with good bread
A piece of crusty bread is a must to soak up every last drop of that delicious sauce!

Finishing touch
A drizzle of good olive oil and a crack of fresh pepper before serving make the whole dish pop.

Preparation

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, mushrooms, Italian seasoning, and oregano. Sauté for 4–5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
  • Pour in the white wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Let it reduce for about 2 minutes.
  • Sprinkle in the flour, mix well, and cook for 2–3 minutes to form a light roux. Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Let the mixture thicken slightly for 2 minutes, then add the tortellini and a pinch of salt. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 8–10 minutes, or until the pasta is tender.
  • Remove from heat, then stir in the cream, parmesan, and spinach. Mix until the cheese melts and the spinach wilts. If the sauce is too thick, thin it out with a splash of warm broth or milk. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve hot topped with grated pecorino.
