Ingredients
- 10½ ounces beef stew meat 300 grams
- 1-2 beef bones with marrow
- 1 large carrot quartered
- 1 medium onion halved
- 1 talk celery halved
- 1 bay leaf
- 3-4 black peppercorns whole
- ¼-½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- 12 cups water (3 litres)
- 1 pound tortellini 500 grams, smaller type with meat
Instructions
- In a large pot add the beef, bone with marrow, the carrot, onion, celery, spices and water. Bring to a boil on medium high heat, then lower the heat and simmer for about three hours half covered, stirring occasionally, remove any foam that appears on the top of the broth.
- Pour the broth through a sieve, then place the liquid back in the pot (taste for salt), bring to a boil and add the tortellini, cook until cooked through. Serve immediately with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese.
WHAT TO MAKE WITH THE MEAT & VEGETABLES
- My mother-in-law would place the meat and vegetable in a bowl and it was delicious that way, but I like to roast them for a bit in the oven on high heat. I sprinkle some oregano, a drizzle of olive oil and a little extra salt if necessary.
Notes
- This can easily become a vegetarian dish by removing the meat and substituting with a cheese tortellini rather than a meat type and using a vegetable broth instead.
- You can also substitute the beef with chicken if you prefer.
- When I made this I made half the pasta and half the broth, the remaining broth I froze.
