Spinach & Sun-dried Tomato Sauce

I made this sauce for Ravioli stuffed with goat cheese and fine herbs; it was ideal. But I’m sure it would go well with tortellini or even spaghetti. It’s so yummy!

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil in a jar, drained from oil
  • 1 tbs olive oil from sun-dried tomatoes
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 100 gr baby spinach
  • 1 1/3 cups half milk and half liquid fresh cream
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 6 fresh basil leaves chopped
  • 250 gr tortellini uncooked
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese shredded, to serve

Preparation

  • Heat sun-dried tomatoes and 1 tbs of oil in a large skillet on medium heat, add minced garlic and cook for about a minute.
  • Add fresh spinach and continue cooking and stirring on medium heat until spinach just starts to wilt.
  • Add half and half, 1/4 tsp of salt, paprika and bring to boil, reduce to simmer and add mozzarella cheese.
  • Stir to melt. Add chopped fresh basil.
  • Cook tortellini according to package instructions. Drain, rinse.
  • Add cooked tortellini to the sauce, mix to coat, warm on medium-low heat. Taste, add more salt if needed (1/4 teaspoon salt that you already added in a previous step should be perfect) .
  • When serving, top with grated Parmesan cheese.
