How to spice up any vegie filled tortellini or ravioli you buy from the supermarkets. This sauce take you less than 15 minutes.
Ingredients
- Sundried Tomato & Mozarella Tortellini (Or any other filled vegetarian pasta)
- 1 cup button mushrooms – sliced
- 4 tablespoons olive butter (or normal butter)
- Pinch of salt
- Cherry tomatoes
- 3 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 table spoon of balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Method
Roast the cherry tomatoes first so they cook while you make the sauce
1. Combine the cherry tomatoes, oregano and olive oil together in a bowl and place in the oven at 180 degrees C (356 F). These will roast while you make the rest of the sauce
Pasta – cook as per the instructions on the packet
Sauce
- On a medium to high flame, melt the butter fully and let it start to bubble and go a bit brown. When this happens, reduce the flame to low and add the mushrooms
- Add a pinch of salt and rosemary and let the mushroom cook till they are soft
- If the mushrooms soak up all the butter, add some more and then a few tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, this gives it a nice tang and cuts down the richness of the butter
- Add the roasted cherry tomatoes, cook for 1-2 minutes and turn off
- Combine the cooked pasta and top with a few fresh basil leaves
