Sesame and ginger cannelloni with vegetable filling

Sesame and Ginger Cannelloni

Cannelloni is a classic stuffed pasta dish from Italian cuisine, but this sesame and ginger version also incorporates the world of oriental flavors. The aroma of fresh ginger and the distinctive taste of toasted sesame seeds elevate the traditional recipe to a new level. The secret to this recipe is sautéing the vegetables and the soy sauce-cream base, which perfectly combines the Italian and Asian elements. This dish is ideal for a weekday dinner when you want to cook something special quickly. When the steaming cannelloni comes out of the oven, the aromas fill the kitchen, and from the first bite you can feel the harmony between Eastern and Western cuisine. Tip: if you want an even more intense flavor, you can add a little chili flakes to the filling.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Grate the garlic and ginger. Finely chop or grate the vegetables. Slice the green onion for garnish. Prepare all ingredients to ensure smooth cooking.

    2

    Heat the sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic, grated carrot, and shredded Chinese cabbage. Sauté for 5-6 minutes, until slightly softened and fragrant.

    3

    Add the soy sauce, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes to create a creamy filling. Let it cool for 5 minutes, then taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

    4

    Fill the cannelloni pasta tubes with the prepared vegetable mixture. Use a piping bag or a small spoon for precision. Tip: If the pasta is too hard, pre-cook it for 3-4 minutes.

    5

    Grease a baking dish with a thin layer of sesame oil. Place the filled cannelloni side by side in the dish. Drizzle a little soy sauce and heavy cream over the top to prevent them from drying out during baking.

    6

    Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25 minutes. Then, remove the foil, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.

    7

    After baking, sprinkle with sliced green onions. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and make it easier to slice.
