1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil; add the tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, about 3 minutes.
2

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the cream and stir frequently until warmed through. Season with nutmeg and pepper. Gradually stir in the Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly, and let it thicken. Stir in the ham and peas.

Drain the cooked tortellini and return them to the pot. Pour the sauce over the tortellini and toss to combine.
