canelloni

Keep a few portions of this vegetarian classic in the freezer and you'll never be stuck for a satisfying supper

Spinach & ricotta cannelloni

olive oil

garlic cloves, crushed

tbsp caster sugar

tbsp red wine vinegar

tomatoes

basil leaves

tubs mascarpone

tbsp milk

parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated

x 125 grams balls mozzarella, sliced

spinach

x 250 grams tubs ricotta

nutmeg

dried cannelloni

First make the tomato sauce. Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the garlic for 1 min. Add the sugar, vinegar, tomatoes and some seasoning and simmer for 20 mins, stirring occasionally, until thick. Add the basil and divide the sauce between 2 or more shallow ovenproof dishes (see Tips for freezing, below). Set aside. Make a sauce by beating the mascarpone with the milk until smooth, season, then set aside.

Put the spinach in a large colander and pour over a kettle of boiling water to wilt it (you may need to do this in batches). When cool enough to handle squeeze out the excess water. Roughly chop the spinach and mix in a large bowl with 100g Parmesan and ricotta. Season well with salt, pepper and the nutmeg.

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Using a piping bag or plastic food bag with the corner snipped off, squeeze the filling into the cannelloni tubes. Lay the tubes, side by side, on top of the tomato sauce and spoon over the mascarpone sauce. Top with Parmesan and mozzarella. You can now freeze the cannelloni, uncooked, or you can cook it first and then freeze. Bake for 30-35 mins until golden and bubbling. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 mins before serving.

Tasty tofu is a vegetarian's best friend and this cannelloni dish, packed with protein and iron, is sure to be a freezable favourite

pine nuts

bag spinach

grated nutmeg

pack silken tofu

pack fresh lasagne sheets

Heat half the oil in a pan, add onion and 1/3 of the garlic and fry for 4 mins until softened. Pour in tomatoes, season and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and cook for 10 mins until sauce thickens.

Heat half remaining oil in a frying pan and cook another 1/3 of garlic for 1 min, then add half the pine nuts and the spinach. Wilt spinach, then tip out excess liquid. Whizz tofu in a food processor or with a hand blender until smooth, then stir through the spinach with the nutmeg and some pepper. Remove from the heat; allow to cool slightly.

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pour half tomato sauce into a 20 x 30cm dish. Divide spinach mix between lasagne sheets, roll up and lay on top of sauce. Pour over remaining sauce. Bake for 30 mins.

Mix crumbs with remaining garlic and pine nuts. Sprinkle over top of dish, drizzle with remaining oil and bake for 10 mins until crumbs are golden.

Cannelloni er store  pastar&#248;r. I denne oppskriften har vi brukt lasagneplater i stedet. Rullene er fylt med svinekj&#248;ttdeig, ost og spinat.

150 g frisk spinat

400 g kjøttdeig av svin

g magerost

ss finhakket frisk timian

0,5 ts pepper

Kok lasagneplater i saltet vann, ca. 5 minutter. Dekk en stekeplate med plastfolie og smør olje over. Ta lasagneplater opp av kjelen og legg platene på stekeplaten.

Skjær løk i tynne båter og finhakk hvitløk. Skyll spinat.

Stek kjøttdeig i to omganger i en stekepanne med margarin. Ta ut kjøttdeigen og stek rødløk og hvitløk. Tilsett spinat, smøreost og finhakket timian. Rør godt. Ha kjøttdeigen tilbake i stekepannen og smak til med salt og pepper.
