Meat Tortellini Ingredients
Method
Meat Tortellini Preparation
- 1
Make the Dough
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Make a well in the center and add the egg and olive oil. Gradually mix in the flour until a dough forms. Knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Prepare the Filling
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and pork sausage until browned. Drain excess fat. In a bowl, mix the cooked meat, ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, black pepper, and salt. Allow the filling to cool.

Roll Out the Dough
After resting, divide the dough into quarters. Roll each quarter out on a floured surface until very thin, about 1mm thick.

Form the Tortellini
Cut the rolled dough into squares (about 5x5 cm). Place a small teaspoon of filling in the center of each square. Fold the square diagonally to form a triangle, then bring the two corners together and pinch to seal.

Cook the Tortellini
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini in batches and cook for about 3-4 minutes or until they float to the surface and are cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
