Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Mix roasted squash, ricotta, parmesan, and nutmeg in a small bowl until smooth.

  2. Step 2

    Place 1 teaspoon filling in the center of each pasta sheet.

  3. Step 3

    Wet the edges of each wrapper with water, fold into a triangle, then bring the corners together to seal.

  4. Step 4

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add tortelli and cook until they float, about 3-4 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    While tortelli cook, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until golden and fragrant, about 3 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Add sage to the brown butter, stir 30 seconds, then gently toss in the drained tortelli.

  7. Step 7

    Serve immediately, spooning brown butter and crispy sage over the top.
