How do you make tortellini soup?
Fry the minced meat in a large pot while stirring, add the tomato paste and chopped garlic. Then deglaze with broth, add the vegetables and heat for about 10 minutes.
Slowly dissolve the canned tomatoes, processed cheese and sour cream in it. Add tortellini and heat for 2 minutes (or according to package instructions). Season with spices and serve with fresh basil and a little Parmesan.
Can I replace the tortellini with other pasta?
Yes, you can easily substitute the tortellini in this recipe with other types of pasta if you don’t have tortellini on hand or just want some variety.
Penne, farfalle and small soup noodles are popular alternatives to tortellini. The preparation remains largely the same. However, it is better to cook the noodles separately according to the package instructions and then add them to the soup.
Be careful not to overcook the noodles as they will continue to cook in the soup.
Is there a vegetarian version of tortellini soup with minced meat?
Yes, of course! Instead of minced meat, simply use plant-based minced meat or leave it out completely if you’re looking for a meatless option.
The remaining ingredients, such as tortellini (with vegetarian filling), sour cream, processed cheese and spices, remain unchanged. You can still use tomatoes, tomato paste and garlic for the delicious base note.
How long can I keep the soup?
Tortellini soup is not only delicious, but also great for storage. After preparation, you can store the leftover, cooled tortellini soup in the refrigerator.
Make sure to store the soup in an airtight container. The tortellini soup will keep in the fridge for about 1-2 days. During this time you can easily warm them up again and enjoy them.
If you want to keep the soup for longer, freezing it is a good idea. To extend its shelf life, you can freeze the soup in portion-sized containers for up to approx. 3 months.
If you want to reheat the soup, let it thaw in the refrigerator first or heat it slowly in a saucepan, stirring occasionally.
