Taste and Complexity in One Pan
There are a number of straightforward, one-pot dinners on the market, however there aren’t many who pack the flavour and complexity of this tortellini with peas and prosciutto.
First, the straightforward, one-pot half: I like that you simply sauté the leeks in a skillet, then add the tortellini and water. This fashion, the tortellini has the chance to cook dinner with the leek taste. As soon as that’s accomplished, you simply dump the whole lot else in and blend it throughout so everybody turns into pals. A couple of minutes later, voila! A totally-formed meal.
Now for the complicated half: Okay, it’s not Escoffier or Rombauer, nevertheless it actually delivers. Creaminess from the tortellini, cream, and cheese and saltiness from the prosciutto that’s properly balanced by sweetness from the leeks and the peas.
I ate so many peas once I was a child that I keep away from them in any respect prices, however on this dish, I believed they had been spot on. In the event you’re not a fan of peas, you might simply substitute them with spinach or broccoli.
Talking of subbing out, if prosciutto is tough to search out, you need to use a good-quality ham instead.
Within the time it’s taken me to jot down this assessment, you might be ½ accomplished with the recipe!
