Tortellini de Setas

Tortellini de Setas is a delightful gluten-free Spanish pasta dish filled with a savory mix of mushrooms and herbs, delivering a hearty flavor in every bite. This dish combines the traditional pasta shape with a rich, earthy filling, making it a perfect comfort food for any occasion.

Ingredients

• Gluten-free pasta flour - 200 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Water - 1 tablespoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Mushrooms (mixed varieties) - 150 grams, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Shallot - 1 small, finely chopped
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Parmesan cheese - 30 grams, grated (optional, for serving)

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free pasta flour, egg, and water. Knead until a smooth dough forms, then wrap it in plastic wrap and let it rest for 20 minutes.
2. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and shallot, sautéing until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Add the finely chopped mushrooms to the skillet, cooking until they release their moisture and become tender, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper, then remove from heat and let cool.
4. Roll out the pasta dough on a lightly floured surface to about 2mm thickness. Cut into squares (approximately 7cm x 7cm).
5. Place a teaspoon of the mushroom filling in the center of each square. Fold the square diagonally to form a triangle, sealing the edges tightly. Bring the two outer corners of the triangle together, pinching to form a tortellini shape.
6. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the tortellini in batches for about 3-4 minutes or until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon.
7. Serve the tortellini warm, topped with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
