  1. Heat a large pot over medium heat and drizzle a bit of olive oil.

Notes

Use fresh tortellini: Fresh tortellini is the best and super quick to cook.
Boil the vegetable broth: Ensure you add boiling vegetable broth to keep up with cooking time.
Don't overcook tortellini: Fresh tortellini takes just a few minutes to cook. Ensure you don't cook for too long, so the tortellini doesn't break up.
