Tortelloni with rocket pesto and dried tomatoes
Imagination and creativity in the kitchen are expressed above all through new takes on culinary classics. So why not make some traditional tortelloni with a more delicate sauce? Simply use rocket in place of basil, and for an extra-special touch, boost the flavour with some sun-dried tomatoes.
