Recipe Tortelli with fish and tofu in shrimp broth – Italian Cuisine

Recipe Tortelli with fish and tofu in shrimp broth


  • 320 g Chinese cabbage
  • 300 g 00 flour
  • 200 g tofu plus a little
  • 200 g re-milled durum wheat semolina
  • 8 prawns
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 onion
  • celery stalk
  • brandy
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • salt
  • pepper

Mix the flour and semolina with 250 g of warm water, a pinch of salt and a tablespoon of oil. Let the dough rest in the film for 1 hour. Shell the prawns. Brown the shells and the heads without eyes in a saucepan with a drizzle of oil.

Add chopped carrot, celery and onion and let them flavor. Deglaze with 2 tablespoons of brandy and flame it. Add 2 liters of water and cook covered for 30-40 '. Sear the shrimp tails in a pan with a drizzle of oil.

Keep 4 aside for decoration and chop the others into cubes. Cut 280 g of Chinese cabbage into small pieces, discarding the hardest parts of the stem. Blanch it in boiling salted water for 1 ', drain and chop it with a knife.

Also cut the tofu into small cubes and collect it in a bowl together with the diced prawns and chopped cabbage, oil, salt and pepper, obtaining the filling for the ravioli. Roll out the dough into thin sheets, but not icing; cut them into squares of 6 cm per side and place a knob of filling on top.

Close them in a triangle and then in a tortello. Strain the shrimp broth. Boil the tortelli in boiling salted water for 3-4 ', drain and serve with the broth, completing with the remaining Chinese cabbage, raw, diced tofu and shrimp kept whole, sectioned.

Savory shrimp pie – Italian Cuisine

»Savory shrimp pie


Brown the shrimp with garlic and oil over high heat in a large non-stick pan.
Meanwhile, boil the potatoes in boiling water until they are pretty soft, drain, peel and mash them while they are still hot.

Put the shrimp in a bowl and mix them with potatoes, ricotta, bechamel, parmesan, chives, salt and pepper.

Arrange the first roll of puff pastry (take it round, not like I had the rectangular ones and then I had to cut it) in the mold lined with parchment paper and prick the bottom.
Pour the filling on the base and level the surface, then cover with the second disc (I have engraved a star in the center, you can do it too if you like the idea) with the help of parchment paper, seal the edges well by cutting the excess and brush with a little milk.

Bake for about 20 minutes in a preheated convection oven at 180 ° C: the shrimp pie is ready.

First, clean the shrimp by peeling them completely (here the guide to find out how to do it).

Turn on the oven at 180 °.

Place the prawns on the bottom of a baking tray lined with parchment paper, season with salt and pepper, then arrange cherry tomatoes on top (with the cut side down), pine nuts, breadcrumbs and rosemary.
