Ingrediants
For 4-6 cannoli
- 100 g of grated Parmesan cheese
- Ready food, boiled: 150 g of peas
- 150 g of fresh ricotta
- 1 bunch of rocket
- Q.b. of salt
- Q.b. of pepper
- Untreated lemon zest
- 50 g of corn
- 1 teaspoon of turmeric
Materials Needed
- Cooking pan
- Baking paper
- Mixer
- Bowls
- Spoons
- Sac à poche
- Becker
Preparation
- Boil the peas in unsalted water for about ten minutes.
- In the meantime, dedicate yourself to the preparation of the parmesan cannoli. From a sheet of baking paper, make four circles with a diameter of about 15 cm.
- Heat a pan and place a circle of baking paper on it. Sprinkle the grated parmesan over the baking paper, until it forms a thin layer, taking care not to leave empty spaces. Maintaining a medium-high heat, heat the parchment paper until you notice that the cheese begins to melt and take on a golden color.
- At this point, very quickly remove the parchment paper with the parmesan sheet and place the melted cheese on an aluminum tube with a diameter of your choice (4 cm, in this case), taking care to make the parts adhere until you obtain a cannoli. To fix the structure, tighten the sheet to the cylinder until you feel the consolidation of the mass.
- Gently detach the cannoli from the holder and arrange on a plate. Proceed in this way until at least 4 cannoli are formed.
The advice ok
To obtain the same cannoli, we recommend weighing the doses of parmesan cheese before proceeding with the shaping of the sheet: in this way, you will get perfect portions.
To give the shape, we used the special tool to cut the pineapple into slices; however, it is also possible to use thinner tubes (eg those specific for the preparation of Sicilian cannoli).- Once ready, drain the peas and combine part of them in a beaker. Season with salt and pepper, flavor with rocket and lemon zest, then blend until creamy. Mix the pea cream with the fresh ricotta and leave to cool.
- Collect the ricotta cream in a pastry bag without spout and stuff the cannoli.
- Finish by decorating the ends of the cannoli with whole peas and corn.
- Serve immediately, dirtying the surface of the cannoli with turmeric.
