Vegetarian Cannoli

Vegetarian Canaloni

1 onion finely chopped
few tbsp olive oil in hot pot.
slowly fry the onions.
3-4 cloves of garlic finely chopped and add to onions.
fresh sweet marjoram taken off of the stock.  Finely chopped or bashed up in a pestal and mortar.
fresh nutmeg (1/2) grated.
1/2 cube butter sliced up.
Mix it all together.  Let it bubble, mix it together until fragrant
Add a bunch of washed spinach until bright green.
Add a good pinch of salt and pepper, mix it together.

Buy fresh pasta squares, put the spinach mixture in the middle, open it out so it is nice and thin, so when it is rolled up it is all over.

Get some ricotta cheese (or buffalo) and crumble on top of spinach.  SPrinkle a bit of salt and a bit of pepper above.  Shred some parmesean cheese on top of it all.

Get some nice vine tomatoes.  Bosch them in a food processer.  Whiz them up with a few handfuls of basil it will be fresh and delicate, and the perfectly compliment to the pasta.  Season it with a little salt and pepper. 

Pour the tomato sauce in the bottom of a pan. 

Rolll up pasta and set in tomato sauce pan.  Squeeze them on. 

Get the lovely bits that have fallen out and sprinkle it on top.

Slice up some fresh buffalo mozzarella and put on top of each pasta.  Then grate a bunch of parmesean on top.

Cook for about half an hour at 250.


** Again, no pictures.  Just try it and love it, though, okay?**
