- Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
- Then find a metal baking tray or ovenproof dish that will fit the cannelloni in one layer so itâs nice and snug.
- This way youâll get the right cover of sauce and the right amount of crispiness on top.
- Take a saucepan, put it on a high heat and add your butter, a drizzle of olive oil, one of the sliced garlic cloves, a handful of marjoram or oregano and the grated nutmeg.
- By the time the pan is hot the garlic should be soft.
- Put as much spinach as will fit into the pan. Keep turning it over: it will wilt quickly so you will be able to keep adding more spinach until itâs all in.
- Moisture will cook out of the spinach, which is fine.
- After 5 minutes, put the spinach into a large bowl and leave to cool.
- Place the pan back on the heat, add a little olive oil, the other clove of sliced garlic, the basil stalks and the tomatoes, then fill one of the empty tomato tins with cold water and add this too.
- Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down, add a pinch of salt and pepper and the sugar, and simmer for about 10 minutes, until you get a loose tomato sauce consistency.
- Then take the pan off the heat and add the basil leaves.
- Squeeze any excess liquid out of the spinach. Finely chop it.
- Mix it with the liquid, and the ricotta and a handful of the Parmesan, and squeeze the mixture into the cannelloni.
- Lay the cannelloni over the tomato sauce into an ovenproof dish.
- To make the white sauce, mix together the crème fraîche, anchovies and the 2 handfuls of Parmesan with a little salt and pepper, then loosen with a little water until you can spoon it over the cannelloni.
- Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and the mozzarella pieces.
- Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes until golden and bubbling.
