Adding a second comment to say that after making it tonight, this recipe is absolutely STELLAR! Only change I made was using nutmeg in the béchamel instead of the mustard, but that was because one of my dinner guests has a strong aversion to mustard and I didn't want to chance it this time. Next time, for just my wife and I, I'll try it as written! It doubles well, and for for American viewers its actually easier. A container of Ricotta, a package of bacon, and one bundle of 3 of our freakishly large leeks that they sell in some of our supermarkets. If you can't find the correct Pasta, the smaller version of the smooth manicotti pasta works well. Large shells would be great also. And Rik tip about standing them up and using a piping bag works amazingly easy (in my case I used a ziplock bag with a corner cut off) Finally, do it as Rik shows, no parboiling the pasta is needed since it bakes long enough to absorb that delicious sauce! Thank you again Rik!

Oh man that looks just delicious. I never thought of using leeks like that in a cheese " stuffing " Also, I love the idea of standing the shells in a round cake ring, pastry cutter or cookie cutter to fill them. So much faster and easier than piping one at a time in your free hand. If you want to amplify that bacon flavor, use the rendered bacon fat in place of butter in your roux when making your Bechamel. I do this when making a country gravy for biscuits with bacon and sausage. Thanks for sharing the little tips here and there.

Leaks… i’ll tell him they’re onions. Mozzarella is ‘the cheese on your pizza’. He doesn’t need to know the ricotta is hiding in there too. Bechamel sauce is lasagna sauce. And cannelloni is only a shape of pasta. Ok, i got it! Let’s do this! WooHoo! … yes. I’m married to a 60 year old toddler 🙄 I blame his mother 😖

Looks so delicious and different. Sadly I won't get to try this one. Cannelloni not available (except expensively on Amazon). We have Manicotti but no "no boil". Even that is over $6 for one small box. Years ago I did stuffed boiled Manicotti and that was no fun at all. lol Even leeks are harder to find and over $5 for one small bunch. Although I have never used any onion other than white/yellow or red so don't know the flavor difference. Can't even get no boil jumbo shells. Sigh... Guess I'll have to layer this between my no boil lasagna and have a nice white lasagna. If you think long enough guess you always find a way to make it work. lol Great looking recipe, Chef!

@@user-zc3lc1ks7h A baked pasta sounds lovely. I'll stick my nose in again. Rik is right, of course, (always) with the rolled lasagna noodles. But here's my twist-I use regular lasagna noodles for everything-rolled or flat. That's exactly how I do my lasagna rolls-a soak in boiling water to soften, drain, spread your filling and roll up. Lay seam side down, cover with sauce and bake. Or, cut in half cross-wise and set in the dish cut side down. The frilly end looks so pretty and the spiral is neat looking. You could also cut the soaked noodle into I'm guessing 3-4 segments, put the filling down the middle, fold the ends in with a little overlap for the cannelloni shape and lay it seam side down. Just like you'd do an enchilada. I think I just inspired myself and I'm doing it this way next. Now for regular lasagna I use dry plain noodles, they're cheaper than no-boil. I leave a little room between as they expand and I use a more liquidy sauce. It works out to roughly 1oz extra water per noodle used minus around 10%. So, in a 9x13 pan if I use 3 noodles side by side and make 3 layers I add a cup of water after it's assembled, cover and bake. I haven't boiled a lasagna noodle in 35 years.

@@dianeladico1769 You can stick your nose in any time you want! Great ideas. Thank you! I have little 6"(?) flat lasagna, no boil (no ruffles). Used it to make a lasagna birthday cake for hubby in a 6" springform pan in the Instant Pot. I could soak those and roll into cannelloni shape I guess. Wow so many possibilities! Thanks!

Regarding the foil, two sheets go through the machine rollers together. The outsides turn out shiny, the insides (foil to foil) are dull. It's all just down to how the metal gets squished.

Hi Rik, this recipe looks and sounds well yummy! When I make it, I may just try an experiment. Instead of cannelloni tubes, I think I may try using lasagne sheets and rolling the stuffing up in them to see how well that works (rather than faffing with teaspoons and piping bags). It might turn out as an unmitigated disaster lol 😂. Now, a slight correction on aluminium sheets, if you look on the box it will tell you that the dull side is non-stick whereas the shiny side isn’t. And there you have it!

@BackyardChef 24 күн бұрын

That's not true - there are two kinds of sheets - regular and then the non stick ones that are clearly indicated on the box. So no correction needed - you are lucky to be able to have the non stick - others including me - cannot get hold of them. Thank you. Best, Rik

I posted this above: I've taken regular lasagna noodles and poured over boiling water to soften. Then I spread the filling and roll up jelly roll style. Either lay in the dish seam side down or cut in half crosswise and stand cut side down. The frilly end looks festive. It works beautifully. Better if the noodles are just soft and not cooked so there's less of a chance of tearing. People love them because they get their own lasagna roll. I add finely chopped cooked spinach and sweet red pepper, sometimes carrot. Makes for lovely colors and flavor in the cheese filling. Plus added goodness from the veg.

Always - there are two types only in the world - the regular and the one which is non stick , clearly indicated on the box saying "Non Stick" I cannot get hold of the non stick - that means its the regular for me, shiny or dull side used makes no difference. Thank you. Best, Rik

If you are going to fry the bacon, try using the bacon grease to fry the leeks and make the bechamel. Layers of flavor

A * Chucky* meal...love these recipes so tasty and simple. Plus I love anything with leeks. Hey Rik, speaking of leeks I'd love a recipe for Vichyssoise soup. I haven't made it in many years and used to love it. There's probably thousands of internet recipes but I dont want to have to stand in the kitchen for 20 hours to make it. I love your recipes because they're proper chef prepared recipes without the B.S.

Its not the cooking - that will take about 25 mins - its the sticking it in the fridge to go cold. Traditionally eaten cold for warm weather. I will list it. thanks for the suggestion. Thank you. Best, Rik

aluminium is made in two sheets together, because the rollers cannot make the thin sheet in one. hence one side is shiny - contacted with the roller - and other is matted.

@BackyardChef 24 күн бұрын

The common belief that aluminum foil is non-stick on the dull side is actually a myth. Regular aluminum foil does not have a designated non-stick side. The difference in the two sides (dull and shiny) is a result of the manufacturing process and does not affect the foil's non-stick properties. However, there is a specific type of aluminum foil called "non-stick foil," which is clearly labeled as such. This type of foil has a special coating that provides non-stick properties, and typically, it will indicate which side to use. For regular aluminum foil, you can use either side to wrap food or line pans, as both sides will function the same. Thank you. Best, Rik
