That voice break at the beginning

[@infernopyre]

mike so cute lol

[@TheCosmicWallaby]

I love that not only we get a great recipe, but the comments are just full of people giving suggestions and advice to eachother. Sorted community is just brilliant!

[@kira.b]

Best part of this video is how excited Mike gets with his transitions to the liking and sharing. Which doesn't mean the rest of the video is bad its all great, but thats just even better than the actual recipe

[@CosylandWhispers]

Mike's glide at 6:36 is adorable...

[@miluri123]

I read that exactly two seconds before he did it.

[@GlamourKillsTian]

I made my own ricotta last week for new years. It was my greatest achievement thus far! Its ridiculously easy for anyone who wants to try it, just bring 4 cups milk to 180C, pour in 1tbsp lemon juice and 1tbsp white vinegar, and in 10 minutes you pour the content into a cheese cloth and BAM RICOTTA (real recipe on annies-eats website!) Will have to try this tortellini on a lazy weekend!

[@SortedFood]

GlamourKillsTian So easy! It would be awesome to make everything in this dish from scratch :)

[@Whatsername4224]

That sounds too easy not to try. Thanks for sharing!

[@jessedwards6432]

I made it at school for my food technology class, it's show easy. But I hated the smell as it cooked with the lemon. But it tasted great.

[@iLovemyMonkey02]

Wouldn't that be cottage cheese ? My friend makes ricotta using whey

[@alexwansss]

Mike: "Spooning consistency, consistently spooning" Ben: *laughs* "Aren't we all?" Okay, we get it, get a room will you? #BikeHebrellstone

[@JerseyLoveee]

I love when Ben and Mike make vids.

[@Iiizbiitch]

I'm about to cry because this looks so beautiful and delicious... Pasta is perfection.

[@Bee-ol1xr]

guys, I am SO happy that you reached 1M followers, I saw that photo on facebook and got me wondering if you're gonna make something especial about it... you said it would when it got there, I was looking foward to see what you'd come up with. I know you have a lot on your plate already, I was just wondering if there'll be something. And congrats. I'm really proud and happy to be somewhat part of the community.

[@audoldends6799]

When Ben said "a final sprig" I legitimately thought "oh god Ben not mint. Mint has nothing to do with this why mint?" So I surprised when he said "basil" and now I'm confused. Who I am without the sprig of mint exasperation? Who is Ben? Who is SORTED?

[@lmaChroma]

This comment made my day so much better, thank you.

[@Laura_Norda]

The Box of Magic - basil and mint are related though lol!!

[@AlinezBR]

this is the kind of video that my mouth starts watering so much and i just wanna eat all the food in the video .

[@ElizabethJJ]

I tried this on MLK day and it was so fun!! First time making pasta dough from scratch- we made raviolis and just pasta sauce instead of tortellini and tomatoes because it was a bit easier, but it was still amazingly delicious! ... It was also a HUGE improvement on one of my favorites, the frozen spinach and ricotta triangle raviolis from Costco that I LOVED as a kid (and actually still love.....)

[@jayceegancena6451]

I tried this recipe tonight for my dinner. For the "sauce" I added red pepper flakes and dried oregano and it was absolutely delicious! Thank you for the idea!!

[@SortedFood]

Joy Gancena Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@sierraroseartt2810]

I love spinach and pasta together! Also, spinach cooked down with a little chopped garlic and olive oil are delicious.

[@ThatGirlOverThere97]

this is the sort of sorted video I really like, along with fridgecam, just a recipe made easy by you guys

[@gnomiegirl22]

pumpkin filling is always awesome!

[@diegofrade7181]

Thank you guys!

[@cillycakes]

6:36 - 6:40 = "smooth" panning of the camera while still being in frame by Mike...that face haha.

[@Nannerchan]

I would like to see another video where dinner is cooked without Ben's assistance. And yes you all have to eat it. Let's see what you learned.

[@SlightlyMiscalculated]

Mike seems exceedingly enthusiastic this episode. :D Seeing him smile really brightens my day

[@VionyTania]

i always make pasta by hands and roll it out with pasta machine, love making pasta but now i live in a place with not very decent kitchen (it's a share one so no one really cleans it properly) so i only cook easy stuff, will make more fresh pasta after i graduate (in few months) and go back to my home country :) i usually pipe my filling if it's not a chunky one and you should try roasted pumpkin and raisin tortellini with beurre noisette, goats cheese, lemon segments and walnuts :)

[@laurabiscaro8135]

guys, use a ricer to squeeze the spinach water out, works so much better than using just the hands ;D

[@SortedFood]

Ooooh, never thought of that! Great idea!

[@Cilver007]

What is a ricer? :)

[@laurabiscaro8135]

It's one of those old-fashioned potato ricer masher, like this one: www.lefsetime.com/store/images/P/Lefse_Potato_Ricer.jpg

[@atinycrow]

Sushi mat also works great, that's how you get the water out of spinach for Spinach Ohitashi (veggie in dashi stock sauce).

[@Whatsername4224]

Ashley Flinn Ok ~ that is brilliant! Thanks for sharing. I can't wait to try this!

[@Whatsername4224]

Yum! I need to admit here that I would sub wonton wrappers for the pasta if I was in a hurry, or more likely, not inclined to make the pasta. But either way, I will be making this recipe this week.

[@lizzielizzard12]

I love when Mike is in the videos, he's so cuuuute

[@goreoussheetal]

All I could remember is: spooning consistency....consistently spooning...aren't we all? I think Ben is literally the king of innuendos ;)

[@awesomesauceusername]

Mike is extra adorable because of pasta, more pasta recipes please!

[@Crizzelklipz]

Thanks for this. Have a catering exam next week and this is one of the things along with risotto. This will definitely help

[@TheSlipperyOtter]

Yay! A recipe that's not sweet! This looks totally divine. I will share this video with my hubby and "encourage" him to make it for me 😊

[@Cookedbyjulie]

I had goat cheese and fig ravioli the other day, it was insanely good

[@jinahkang9499]

Am I the only one that hears "Sorted water" when Ben says "salted water" ?

[@lailazoghaib1734]

I sometimes think they say salted instead of sorted at the end 😂

[@Crazetex]

Mike and Ben are my favorite cooking pair for Sorted! You two play off each other so well - it's both cute and informative, which is why Sorted is my favorite cooking show in the first place. ...but Jamie and Barry do the best fridgecams, sorry.

[@leahmonita3801]

For sure going to try this recipe out!

[@Fezzesarecool675]

I got a pasta machine for christmas so im so excited to make this!!

[@BiPolarBeard]

I am almost scared by Mikes giddiness in this video..

[@Ausholliday15]

I'm getting he's trying to substitute the energy and presence of Barry and Jamie.

[@soschadao]

spinach and basil goes well together as well

[@TheEndreaBrown]

6 Jan is my birthday and this video is like a present for me from SORTED Food! Thank you for sharing recipes and making lovely video

[@manalshamsan5334]

Gotta try it!! I once tried mushroom ravioli and turned out awesome.

[@renji908]

I use the combination of cherry tomatoes, garlic and basil sooo often for pasta ! So heavenly delicious. But instead of just water I use the water used for cooking the pasta, helps it sort(ed) of bind everything together thanks to the starch in it. It really makes a difference ! Shame you couldn't use this little trick as you did the "sauce" before cooking the pasta, which is normal because fresh pasta cooks so damn quick ! I'll make the tortellini as soon as I got some more time ;), I'm in midterm exam period right now :'(...This will be my celebration dish when it ends :D !

[@isabellamarchitello6094]

You guys are so great and your recipes, when made, are phenomenal

[@pruplemango]

I think I may have to make this on Saturday!!!

[@alvaedison20]

i never cook but i always watch ur videos!

[@SortedFood]

alvaedison20 You should try cooking this one then! :D

[@katiewilliams9239]

I adore mike.

[@n1ftynina]

Sorted asked us on facebook what we'd like to see more... I asked for more mike. I GOT WHAT I WANTED. Thanks guys xx lol btw mike has a great bod he doesn't need sweaters to cover up- just a suggestion!

[@clairedonnaryan]

I made this tonight and i have a couple tips: 1. MAKE SURE the pasta is rolled SUPER THIN 2. If you are out of ricotta use 1/2 greek yogurt and 1/2 feta 3.DONT ADD TOO MUCH PARM.

[@SortedFood]

Claire Ryan Yep, thin pasta is really important for this one! Love the feta / yoghurt idea!

[@Whatsername4224]

Great idea w/ the yoghurt and feta ~ that sounds amazing! But is there such a thing as too much parm???

[@Khazandar]

No. No there isn't.

[@taylorbaker4770]

i just made this for dinner soo yummy and simple to do ;) thanks for the recipe

[@Khazandar]

I'm a lazy git, so i just made ravioli shapes. Absolutely brilliant food.

[@loveandmusic91]

Tortellini is my absolute favorite!! Definitely going to try this one!

[@Lou-Mae]

Anyone going back to rewatch all these old videos to see how things have changed over the years?

[@Yaya-bb2gc]

Simplicity at its finest

[@AllieKate17]

Can you please make a video on how to make a French macaron? I'm not sure of the difference between French and Italian macarons but the ones I always buy are French. I have been having dreams of lavender honey and raspberry chocolate macarons

[@harrygunning616]

Brilliant, just got a pasta machine for Christmas! Great timing and video guys!

[@mermaidxemily]

Please cook this for me as I am poorly, it looks so good!

[@TheCalilolo]

Can't get over how much I love this channel. It is just so consistently well done. Great job you guys! :)

[@jasminehu4267]

Looks good and a good portions

[@NP-zl7dz]

Keep smashing it Ben!

[@lovefrombee]

I always thought pasta was hard. But Mike & Ben you just make it so easy! Also don't know if this is relevant but woke up singing Dunk Your Nuts today.

[@curleyQ06]

FINALLY! something besides the cake in a mug i can make! :D

[@lthum]

An amazing, amazing tip for peeling garlic is to put your cloves in a large enough container for them to move around in... And SHAKE! I swear it saves so much time and you incorporate a bit of an arm workout!

[@h06anbjo]

*drools over Mikes handsome face* And I totally agree with Mike, that plate was HUUUGEEE!! Look at Ben running a knife through the tortellini at the end like it wasn't small enough before.. LOL!! Hey guys!! For this weeks FridgeCam(or next weeks fridgecam), could you do the Pizza-challenge? Y'alls would be awesome!! Love you!!

[@spanishcooking9493]

nutmeg also goes great with bechamel sauce, isn't? congrats for the show... amazing!

[@SortedFood]

Spanish Cooking It does!

[@VENNILOVE]

I was needed a romantic meal! Purrrfect! Thanks!!

[@seven-nm7ze]

Looks soo yum!

[@CherylKCherylsHomeCookingshow]

Looks wonderful! :) YUM YUM!

[@mikehawk2148]

really enjoyed the editing on this one

[@joy2504]

That looks delicious! My favorite is spinach and mushroom

[@WhoaSarahWhoa]

Mike's facial hair is on point. The pasta looks amazing too...

[@poniesgirl1]

OMG! This is just what I needed. Mastered spaghetti, now onto tortellini

[@MyFLJ]

This looks so delicious! I'm going to have to dig out the pasta-roller and make this some time - maybe with spinach in the pasta to make it even more colourful and impressive? :) Great video btw! You guys really brighten up my days! :)

[@avaihilani9148]

THERE'S ONLY FIVE TORTELLINIS IM GOING TO CRY I'M SO SAD

[@sharonthomas7771]

I was just craving this, it's like they can read my mind or something crazyyyy

[@TigerSan007]

Great recipe! I love the combo of spinach and ricotta and I definitely need to try making my own pasta at some point. Spinach pasta is also really good and you get a wonderful green color too. My favorite pasta filling is just straight ricotta and basil though I do love a good seafood filled pasta too. Mmmmm You shouldn't have to thicken or enrich a ricotta filling, just use whole milk ricotta...

[@chrzrd.]

That looks DELICIOUS!!! Definatly gonna try this out. Thanks guys!!

[@1337gaia]

Oh my god I need that pasta roller. And that Kenwood standing mixer. Pleeeaaase.

[@anastasiamaximova747]

Guys, can you do another episode of the Mystery Box, I would be grateful!))

[@Easymealpreprecipes]

That looks amaaaaazing. And I love your accents, how you say "pAsta" with a hard A. :D

[@sydneyca]

I cannot believe I'm actually agreeing with Mike on something. That bowl is HUGE!

[@fadingblush]

For years I thought Ben was saying boiling SORTED water instead of SALTED water and I thought that was the Sorted 'Twist' as he likes to call it... Now it all finally makes sense! Haha

[@samanthakenny1295]

I'm a beekeeper and often struggle to find honey or bee related dishes to make for Apiary Brunches. Could you maybe do a 3 Things To Do With or something similar?? There are so many interesting things to talk about when it comes to honey. I personally enjoy substitution sugar in classic recipes for honey but it has endless applications. Love your channel!

[@panniepanpan97]

looks good!

[@michelle.doesthings]

definitely making this this weekend! :)

[@Hafsa03]

I wonder what they do to the food they make when they've already prepared one earlier

[@sheinaedeline2814]

Can you do some tips on whisking or beating egg whites by hand and mixer, or tips on basic baking skills?

[@Diesy00]

Why the olive oil in the dough? I love eat ricotta and spinach tortellini only with butter and sage! I don't know if you remember but I wrote on tumblr about tortellini legends ages ago. Glad to spread the Italian food traditions :3

[@IrmaU94]

When i make soup for dinner instead of an apetizer i really fill it up with veggies and tortillini. I use bacon filled tortellini for my tomato soup. If you havent tried it please do.

[@Beachgirl1950]

My favorite pasta filling is cheese. Looks delicious. :)

[@julesloveee]

i like this!

[@Himbeerfee81]

I am hungry! Wish you can make these tortellini and send them over to my house.

[@LinkinFortDay]

"are you trying to impress me?" "always." god i ship ben and mike so hard.

[@MegaHipoman]

I am so going to make this

[@JodOnlyKnows]

You put this up when I've just turned vegan... Bad timing! Looks so yummy! Some vegan recipes would be really useful though if you fancy making some...

[@SoundOfDaFunk]

They've made a veggie burger before

[@JodOnlyKnows]

Yeah just wanna see more vegan recipes tis all :) I love their videos and make me feel more motivated to cook for myself and not rely on ready meals.

[@KaishaLouise]

***** You can always make fresh pasta with water, or water and oil! I don't know the exact amounts because I've never measured it, but it does work! You can always use a vegan cheese too.

[@acorndrumneptune]

***** if you want vegan see tastemade's "raw vegan not gross" series

[@KaishaLouise]

Oh yeah that was a good series. Totally forgot that one. But a lot of 'normal' recipes are easily tweaked. (As I imagine you probably already know)

[@Saphuria]

There's a girl at my work place who makes "Asian pasta",so Western pasta in a Asian style sauce. Maybe some inspiration/ idea to try...? I'm not sure what goes into hers, but it's good!

[@King-jw6hp]

IS EVERYONE JUST GOING TO IGNORE MIKE'S VOICE BREAK AT 0:06?

[@kiyashajohnson3518]

For your next dish maybe you should try the Jamaican national dish called Ackee and salt fish

[@regenorakel]

"Consistently spooning." - "Aren't we all?" I nearly spat out my water, guys, come on.

[@eseo6989]

can you do a healthy series? for the new year?!

[@TheCrubbish]

Can you do galette des rois? Tried it for the first time today and it's awesome!

[@rebekahsloan2422]

I really want your jumper!!! It's so nice, I saw it in the River Island sale at the men's area!! 😭

[@Apocalypz]

Still gay for Ben, but Mike does a brilliant job of making me laugh all the way through. Over the years, these blokes have really become a proper group for KZbin. Brilliant job!!!

[@laurasophie2787]

Great recipe! defenetly will try it! :) could you please do a video on how to do filled gnocchi? :)

[@EmiliaCermisoni]

I saw Ben in a Good Food Magazine!
