Preparation steps
For the dough, mix all ingredients together, knead into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
For the filling, peel onion, chop, fry in butter, add diced ham and cook for a bit longer. In a bowl, mix ground meat, breadcrumbs, Parmesan and egg yolk. Add ham and onion. Mix and season with salt and pepper.
Roll dough out onto a floured surface until thin. Cut into 5-6 cm (approximately 2 inches) squares. Place 1 teaspoon of filling into the middle of each square and fold into a triangle. Press edges down to seal. Pull edges of each triangle together, wrapping dough around your finger to give it a rounded shape. Place tortellini on a floured kitchen towel.
For the sauce, thaw peas. Cut ham into small cubes. Peel onion and dice. Melt butter in a pan and saute onion. Add peas and ham and cook briefly. Sprinkle with cornstarch and pour in cream and vegetable stock. Simmer gently for about 3 minutes.
Simmer tortellini for about 5 minutes in simmering water. Drain and mix with sauce. Served sprinkled with Parmesan and garnished with parsley.
