Knead the flour, eggs, salt, and oil into pasta dough. Wrap in foil and let rest for at least 30 minutes, preferably longer. Then roll out in portions. Finely chop the basil leaves and press the garlic through a press. Mix all the filling ingredients thoroughly and season with salt and pepper. Add salt sparingly, as Parmesan and Pecorino are quite salty! Form pasta parcels and fill them, sealing tightly. Melt butter in a pan and fry the finely sliced ​​spring onions in it, adding a little salt. Cook the parcels in boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes, transfer to a plate, and serve with the sauce. Serve with freshly grated Pecorino or Parmesan cheese.
