Ingredients

1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/4 cup of grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
1/4 cup of ricotta cheese
1/2 cup semolina flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon of salt
Two large eggs
1/2 cup of frozen spinach, thawed and drained

Time Needed

Prep Time: 1 hour
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour, 5 minutes

Instructions

Combine the all-purpose flour, semolina flour, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Mix in the eggs and olive oil until a dough forms.
Knead the dough for 5–10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes, covered.
Blend the spinach, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, and black pepper in a food processor until smooth.
Roll out the dough into thin sheets and cut into small circles with a glass or cookie cutter.
Fill each circle with a small spoonful of the spinach and cheese mixture.
Fold the circle in half and press the edges together to form a half-moon shape.
Bring the two halves of the half-moon together and seal with a fork to form a tortellini shape.
Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
Make a pot of salted water come to a boil.
Tortellini should be cooked for 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
Serve immediately with your preferred sauce or toppings.
