Preparation

Start by concentrating on the homemade pasta: take the all-purpose flour, make a well in the centre and break two eggs into it, then start mixing everything by kneading. Rest the pasta for 30 minutes.

In the meantime, prepare the filling: put the ricotta in a container, add the boiled and cut chard, along with the grated Parmigiano Reggiano, egg and salt and mix everything together with the grated nutmeg.

Roll out the pasta with a rolling pin to obtain a thin sheet. Place the pasta on a work surface and place a teaspoon of filling (for each tortello) on top and then cover it with the pasta, try not to leave any air holes that could cause the tortello to break up during cooking.

Then, cut out the tortelli with a pastry cutter wheel. It is important that the tortelli are a similar size to each other to ensure that each one is cooked properly.
