Tortellini with sauteed green peas and beans

Background

For this recipe you can use shop-bought or home-made tortellini, with stuffing of your choice. I used vegan, “no chorizo” filling that had sundried tomatoes, smoked paprika and red chilli in it.

Ingredients

250g tortellini (can be vegan)
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 shallot onion
2 cloves of garlic
100g green peas
100g green beans
1 tsp vegetable stock
½ glass water
1 handful mint leaves
1 tsp white wine vinegar or juice of ½ lemon

Instructions

Thinly slice the onion and garlic.
Heat the oil in a frying pan, the gently sauté the onion and garlic for 5 minutes.
Add the beans, peas, stock powder, vinegar and water.
Put a lid on and cook for 5 minutes over low heat or until the veggies are tender.
Turn off the heat, keep the lid on and rest.
Heat a pan of water. When it’s boiling add the tortellini and cook for about 2 minutes - when they float to the surface, they are ready to take out with a slotted spoon.
Serve the sautéed greens, then arrange the drained tortellini on top. Scatter some mint leaves on top and serve with freshly ground pepper.
