An interesting twist for a dinner party canapé, tangy tortellini mingling with the delicate flavours of sun-blushed tomatoes and olives. Ingredients:
24 shop-bought fresh tortellini (any colour or flavour) |
24 sun-blushed tomatoes |
24 black olives, pitted |
fresh ground black pepper |
1 grated lemon, zest of |
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
freshly ground salt and black pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook the tortellini in boiling salted water according to the packet instructions. Once they are cooked, drain and rinse well under cold water to cool them down quickly. Place in a bowl and mix with the marinade ingredients. This can now be covered and left to marinate for about 30 minutes.
2. Once marinated, thread one tortellini, a sun-blushed tomato and an olive onto each skewer. Season with a twist of black pepper and arrange on a platter. Cover and keep at room temperature until needed.
