  • Preparation time: 30 Minutes
  • Portions: 3 People
  • Cooking methods: Oven, Stove
  • Cuisine: Italian
  • Seasonality: All seasons

Ingredients

P.S. I used a special bronze-drawn pasta shape, large grooved penne.

  • 15 egg cannelloni
  • 12.3 oz sheep ricotta (or cow)
  • 14.1 oz veal minced meat
  • 8.8 oz fiordilatte
  • grated parmesan
  • 700 canned tomatoes
  • 3.4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Half onion
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 stalk celery
  • basil
  • salt
  • 17.6 oz all-purpose flour (or semolina)
  • 5 eggs

Steps

  • If you decide to make the pasta by hand, pour the flour into the food processor, add the eggs, and knead.

  • Then roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut it into squares of about 5 inches.

  • Then prepare the sauce.

  • Chop the carrot and celery, then place them in a pan, add the onion without chopping it, if you prefer you can also do so, we don’t like it.

  • Then prepare the filling.

  • Heat the oil in a pan, then add the meat and let it cook, try to crumble it with a fork.

  • When the meat is almost cooked, add some tomatoes and the ricotta, then mix and let it cook a little to dry.

  • Stuff the cannelloni, if you make them by hand, put the filling on the squares and roll up the dough.

  • Oil a baking dish, add some sauce on the bottom and make a row of cannelloni, season with the sauce and the fiordilatte cut into pieces.

  • Continue until you finish the ingredients, sprinkle with grated parmesan and bake in the hot oven at 356°F for about 20-25 minutes.

    Bon appétit
