Wikipedia Article About Agnolotti on Wikipedia

Agnolotti is a kind of pasta made with a small square piece of flattened pasta dough, folded over with a meat and vegetable stuffing inside. Although their primitive shape was circular, nowadays they are of a square shape. In some case they can also come with a rectangular shape, when they are pinched (Agnolotti 'al plin'). They are prepared by either poaching them or by browning them in a frying pan with butter. This dish is associated with Piedmont in Italy.
