Cooking Steps

1
  • Thinly slice mushrooms.
  • Finely chop parsley.
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
  • When hot, add walnuts to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
  • Transfer walnuts to a plate.
3
  • Increase heat to medium-high, then add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then mushrooms and peas. Cook, until veggies begin to soften, 3 min.
  • Add leeks. Cook, stirring often, until leeks are tender, 2-3 min. Season with salt and pepper.
4
  • Reduce heat to medium-low, then add cream and cream cheese. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cream cheese melts and sauce thickens slightly, 1-2 min.
  • Remove from heat, then stir in basil pesto and half the parsley.
5
  • Meanwhile, add tortellini to the boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 min.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water. Drain and return tortellini to the same pot, off heat.

Does this amount of reserved water need to be increased here?

6
  • Add sauce and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) reserved pasta water to the pot with tortellini. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add reserved pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time, if desired.)
  • Divide tortellini between bowls.
  • Sprinkle with walnuts and remaining parsley.

Does measured amount of pasta water need to be increased here? to 1/4 cup?
