Ingredients (5 portions)

Basic:

Olive oil (For filling) 2 tbsp
Bulb onions (medium, with filling) 1 pc
Parmesan (grated, into the filling) 150 g
Spinach (fresh, but can also be frozen for filling) 50 g
Cannelloni 20 pc
Ricotta (into the filling) 500 g

Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
My cannelloni do not require pre-cooking. It is necessary to read the packaging before cooking.

Step 2

Step 2
Letʼs prepare the Bechamel sauce. Melt butter (60 g) in a small saucepan, add flour (60 g) and stirring vigorously, pour in hot milk (0.5 l), season with nutmeg and salt to taste. Bring to a boil and remove from heat.

Step 3

Step 3
Now letʼs get to the filling. Boil the spinach in boiling water for 1 minute, squeeze out and chop coarsely.

Step 4

Step 4
Fry the onion in olive oil until golden brown, add spinach and ricotta. Mix. Reduce heat, add salt and pepper to taste. Add 2/3 grated Parmesan. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Step 5
Fill the cannelloni with the prepared filling. To do this, put the filling in a bag and cut off one of the corners. The result will be something like an improvised pastry bag. I find this to be one of the most convenient ways to stuff cannelloni. However, you can fill them using a small spoon, a pastry syringe, or any other way.

Step 6

Step 6
Place 1/3 of the Bechamel sauce on a greased baking dish (I have a glass one). Top with stuffed cannelloni.

Step 7

Step 7
Pour over the remaining sauce and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese (whatʼs left). Bake for 30 minutes at 180 degrees (depend on your oven).

Step 8

Step 8
Remove from the oven and leave for 10 minutes. This is how beautiful we got!

Step 9

Step 9
All that remains is to place the cannelloni on plates and call your household members. This dish is very beautiful and appetizing, so it always looks great on the holiday table. Pamper your loved ones and prepare cannelloni with ricotta and spinach. Believe me, everyone without exception will like this delicious dish. Enjoy your meal!
