  Place the flour in a bowl. Make a well in the center and crack the eggs into it. Beat the eggs with a fork until smooth. Using the tips of your fingers, mix the eggs with the flour, incorporating a little at a time, until everything is combined. Knead the dough together until all binds together to give you a smooth lump of dough.(You can also make your dough in a food processor). Once you've made your dough you need to knead and work it with your hands to develop the gluten in the flour, Then, wrap it in cling film, cover it with a cloth and put it to rest for half an hour. (Here you can start with your filling.) Then roll the dough with a rolling pin or a pasta machine. Lightly dust the pasta with flour if it sticks at all. How thin? Well...it really depends on your taste. I like it about 1 to 1.5 millimeters thin.

  Pour cream and parsley on a pan and warm it up on low heat. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Meanwhile cook the tortelloni in plenty of boiling salted water for 5 minutes, until all risen to the top, then use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a pan with the cream sauce. Gently turn the pasta to be coated in the sauce and leave for a minute for the pasta to absorb some of it. Spoon the tortelloni onto 4 plates and top with the cubed tomato grated Parmesan.
