Today I have prepared this fish and seafood cannelloni recipe, so rich that I was looking forward to sharing it with all of you. A subtle and delicate flavor but with a strong presence of the sea, a creamy béchamel sauce and a bit of gratin cheese, are the keys to this dish.
In general, at home we tend to make Rossini cannelloni or the recipe for cannelloni with minced meat more often, but today we have decided to prepare this classic elaboration of stuffed pasta gratin covered with bechamel sauce, with a filling based on seafood.
the recipes of cannelloni are usually quite satisfyingeven in cheaper versions such as tuna cannelloni with tomato, so I recommend that you prepare three or four per person if it is going to be a single dish or two or three if you are going to prepare a first course before serving them.
We clean the fish well, remove any possible bones that may have passed to the fishmonger and cut it into small pieces. we snack too the spring onion and the white part of the leek and we poach them in a frying pan without letting them toast.
Chop the fish into cubes that are not too small to find the pieces when eating. Add them to the vegetable sauce and cook for five minutes. We also add the prawns cut into three pieces and the tinned mussels drained and cut in half. Reserve and let cool.
Cook the pasta according to the manufacturer’s instructions and spread it out on a kitchen towel. Put a bit of the filling in the center of each cannelloni and we roll them giving them the traditional cylindrical shape. If you use cannelloni that already have a cylindrical shape like me, just fill them in, as they will cook in the oven. As we fill them, we are placing the cylinders one next to the other in a fountain.
Prepare a homemade béchamel as we teach you here and cover the cannelloni with it. We put a little grated cheese around the edges and Bake at 200ºC for 15 minutes and then grill for two or three more minutes. to melt and brown the cheese. We take it to the table warning that the interior can be very hot.
