Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
12 garlic cloves, sliced
6 large tomatoes, chopped (about 5 cups)
1 cup chopped fresh basil
1 10-ounce package spinach leaves, stems trimmed
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Ground nutmeg
24 square wonton wrappers

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and half of garlic; sauté 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and 3/4 cup basil. Cook 15 minutes to blend flavors, stirring often and adding water if dry. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill.)
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add remaining garlic; sauté; 1 minute. Add spinach; cook until most of liquid evaporates, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool. Squeeze out liquid.
  • Place spinach in processor. Add ricotta and blend well. Blend in 1/2 cup Parmesan. Season filling to taste with nutmeg, salt and pepper.
  • Place 1 wonton wrapper on work surface. Brush edges with water. Place 1 scant tablespoon filling on 1 half. Fold diagonally in half, forming triangle. Press edges to seal. Overlap 2 ends together; press to adhere. Repeat with remaining wrappers, water and filling. Place in single layer on floured baking sheet. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover with plastic; chill.)
  • Working in batches, cook tortelloni in pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer to bowls.
  • Meanwhile, bring sauce to simmer. Spoon over pasta. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup basil.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for my taste. There were too many steps, and it took me a long time to make. The tortelloni were also a bit bland. I would not make this dish again.

This recipe was a disaster! The tortelloni were undercooked, and the filling was dry and tasteless. The tomato sauce was also very bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The tortelloni were delicious, but the tomato sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using a different type of tomato sauce, or perhaps adding a bit of acidity to balance out the sweetness.
