  • 1 point Tortellini (refrigerated section)
  • 4 large eggs

Instructions

Working time approx. 35 minutes; Total time approx. 35 minutes

Fry the minced meat in a hot pan until crumbly. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, and Provençal herbs to taste. While the minced meat is cooking, trim the leeks, cut them into small rings, and then add them to the pan with the minced meat. Meanwhile, cook the tortellini according to the package instructions. When the tortellini are cooked, heat another pan (preferably a larger one) and fry the tortellini until crispy. Whisk the eggs with the grated cheese. Tip: You can vary the cheese. If you prefer a heartier cheese, use Emmental or sprinkle a little Parmesan over the top. Add the browned minced meat and leeks to the tortellini, mix well, and then pour the egg mixture over the top. Let everything set over low heat for about 10 minutes. Arrange on plates and serve immediately.
