Prepare the fresh pasta dough by mixing the flour, eggs, a splash of white wine, and a pinch of salt. Knead until smooth and let it rest.

Roll out the pasta thinly and cut into squares.

Fill each square with a mixture of diced mozzarella and chopped tomatoes, seasoned with oregano.

Fold the pasta over to create the plin shape and seal the edges.

In a pan, sauté the garlic in olive oil, add the cherry tomatoes and cook until softened.

Add the pine nuts and basil to the pan, mixing well.

Cook the filled plin in boiling salted water until they float, then drain and toss with the sauce.
