"Canneloni" (كنيلوني)

Cannelloni is an Italian dish, which is nutritious and is very tasty in the same time!
It contains eggs, milk, meat, onion, cheese and tomato sauce.




Ingredients needed:

2 cups of milk.
1 cup flour.
3 eggs.
1/4 kg minced meat.
Butter.
1 minced onion.
2 tbsp tomato paste.
Grated romano cheese.
Oil.
Salt & Pepper.


Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  2. Put some oil in a sauce pan and fry the minced onion until it becomes yellow. Then add the minced meat and season with salt and pepper. Stir all on a medium heat, until the meat absorbs all its water and is fully cooked then remove from stove.
  3. In a big bowl mix the milk, eggs, flour, salt and pepper with an egg mixer or a whisker until completely blended together.
  4. In a small skillet (8") melt a very small piece of butter on low to medium heat.
  5. Then take about 7 ounces of the cannelloni mixture and fry it in the skillet on both sides. We can measure the 7 ounces with 1 cup of cappuccino or 2 small ladles. The cannelloni should be dark yellow from each side.
  6. Remove on a plate to cool down. Then take about 2 tsp of the cooked meat and put on the edge of the cannelloni and roll to close. It will be open from the 2 sides.
  7. Add the previous steps until u finish all the mixture. It would make about 9-10 pieces.
  8. Put all of the cannelloni next to each other in a baking dish, I prefer a Pyrex dish.
  9. Prepare the sauce by adding a few drops of oil in a sauce pan, add about 2 tbsp tomato paste, salt and pepper then stir. Add some water and stir again. The sauce should be thick!
  10. Pour the sauce over the whole dish, then sprinkle lots of grated romano cheese on top.
  11. Put in oven in the middle rack until the cheese on the top melts.
  12. This would take about 20 minutes.


I hope you like it!
