Direction :

1. Place the flours and eggs into a food processor and blitz to fine breadcrumbs. Turn onto a floured work surface and knead the dough for 4 to 5 minutes, wrap in cling film and chill for 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile make the filling by placing the mushrooms into a large fry pan, melt the butter and sauté then cool and pop into a food processor with three quarters of the ricotta, cream, lemon and seasoning and blitz until fine.
3. To roll the pasta, dust the rollers of the pasta machine, cut the pasta into 4 pieces and flatten out to fit through. Set the machine to its widest setting and thread through. Change to the next setting and thread through again keep repeating until you reach the lowest setting.
4. To make the tortellini, place one of the long sheets of pasta onto the surface. Place a teaspoon of the filling in the centre leaving a gap. Wet the pasta. Using a 9cm round cutter cut out the pasta, fold up to make a semi-circle and seal. At this point the pasta can be chilled or frozen.
5. To make the sauce fry the mushrooms in butter then add the wines and stock. Bring to the boil then finish with the cream and thyme then season.
6. Bring a large pan of water to the boil, add a tablespoon of salt and cook the pasta for 2 minutes. Drain and pop in the sauce.
7. To serve, spoon the pasta and sauce into bowls top with chervil and herb oil.
