#ADV

  • Baking pan

Preparation TORTELLINI TIMBALE RECIPE

  • Put a little oil in a saucepan and sauté the classic soffritto with celery, carrot, and onion. Then add the mixed minced meat and cook over high heat, stirring the mixture.

  • Pour the red wine and let it evaporate.

    Add the tomato sauce, stir, season with salt, and continue cooking covered over moderate heat for about 30 minutes.

  • At the end of cooking, boil the meat-filled tortellini in plenty of salted boiling water.

  • Drain them al dente and cool them quickly under a stream of running water.

    Place them in a bowl and season them with the mixed minced meat ragu and a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.

  • Line a mold at least 3 inches high and a diameter of 8-9 inches with one roll of shortcrust pastry, also coming up on the sides.

    Prick the bottom with a fork and pour in the well-seasoned tortellini.

  • Cover with the second roll of shortcrust pastry (leave a small chimney, a hole for the steam that will form during cooking) sealing the tortellini timbale well at the edges.

  • Moisten the surface with milk or water. With the scraps, if you want, decorate the pastry; I made little butterflies with cookie cutters….which you can’t see at all ^_^!!!

  • Bake at 338°F for about 40 minutes or according to your oven’s characteristics until the pastry is nicely golden!

  • Remove the tortellini timbale from the oven, let it rest for 4-5 minutes, then serve at the table! Enjoy your tortellini timbale!!
