Description
These creamy, full-flavoured tortelloni are filled with tangy Gorgonzola cheese and sweet pear. We love to top them with chopped walnuts and pangrattato - breadcrumbs that have been fried with garlic and olive oil. This is a rich, indulgent dish that is perfect with a slightly aromatic white wine, such as a Northern Italian Riesling.
- 250g Gorgonzola and Pear Tortelloni
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed or grated
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra to serve
- 50g breadcrumbs

- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and gently cook the garlic for a minute or so.
- Add the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring regularly, until golden brown.
