Mexican

In Mexican cuisine, fajita refers to strips of grilled meat and veg that are fried and spiced with smoky and peppery seasonings. This Fajita Flavours Chorizo, Spinach & Ricotta Tortelloni uses chipotle to give a similar smokiness to the sauce, which pairs perfectly with the creamy filling of the pasta.

Preparation
1
Get Prepped

a) Boil a full kettle for the tortelloni.

b) Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.

c) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

2
Fry the Chorizo and Pepper

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat.

b) Once hot, add the chorizo and sliced pepper and cook until charred, 5-6 mins. 

c) While the pepper cooks, halve the ciabatta and lay onto a baking tray, cut-side up.

d) Spread over half the garlic and drizzle with the olive oil for the garlic bread (see pantry for amount). Set aside for now. 

3
Cook the Tortelloni

a) Meanwhile, pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with ½ tsp salt on high heat.

b) Add the tortelloni to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 4-5 mins. 

c) Preheat your grill to high. 

d) Once the tortelloni is cooked, drain in a colander. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

4
Make the Sauce

a) Once the pepper is charred, add the tomato puree, chipotle paste and remaining garlic. Fry for 1 min. 

b) Next, stir in the veg stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts).

c) Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 2-3 mins. 

d) Meanwhile, pop the garlic bread under the grill until golden, 5-6 mins.

5
Finishing Touches

a) Once the sauce has thickened, stir in the creme fraiche and hard Italian style cheese. Simmer for 1 min more.

b) Season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat. 

6
Serve Up

a) Gently mix the cooked tortelloni into the sauce (add a splash of water if needed), then share between your bowls.

b) Top with a handful of rocket

c) Cut the garlic bread diagonally in half and serve on the side.
