Preparation steps

1.

For the pasta, mix flour with 1 teaspoon salt, mound on work surface and form a well in the center. Add eggs, 1 tablespoon oil and 1-2 tablespoons cold water to well in flour and knead to a smooth dough. Form dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and let rest about 30 minutes.

2.

For the filling, drain ricotta well. Mix ricotta, herbs, Parmesan and egg yolk and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.

3.

Divide dough into portions and roll out thinly with a pasta machine or on a floured surface. Cut dough into circles about 6 cm (approximately 2 1/4 inches) diameter. To assemble tortellini, place about 1 teaspoon filling in center of dough circle. Brush circle edge with egg white and fold into a half-circle, pressing together firmly to seal.  Fold edge and press tips together. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Cover tortellini and let rest on work surface about 15 minutes.

4.

For the alfredo sauce, rinse and trim scallions and cut diagonally into rings. Peel carrots and cut into fine sticks. Sauté scallions and carrots briefly in remaining oil, deglaze pan with white wine and simmer 3-4 minutes.

5.

Simmer tortellini in boiling salted water about 6 minutes and drain.

6.

Stir peas into pan with scallions and carrots, pour in heavy cream and simmer gently 3-4 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper.

7.

Cut prosciutto into wide strips and gently stir into tortellini with sauce. Garnish tortellini with basil to serve.
