Cookery

I bought some tofu earlier this week and have been trying to think of ways to prepare it all week. I put most of it into the cannellonis I made and today I made some out of root vegetables abd tofu
so, in case you're looking for new things to cook, here are a couple of "recipes". I'm not going to write them out step by step, just what I put into them and the generl instructions.

Vegetarian cannellonis

1 can of crushed tomatoes
garlic
spinach
tofu
biryani rice mix (didn't exactly use this but it's the same thing I guess)
(salt, black pepper, chili, curry, whatever else you want to add)

white sauce
(butter, flour, salt, nutmeg, cheese + anything else you want to add)

cannelloni shells

grated cheese

Cut the garlic into tiny pieces or crush it with a crusher and fry it for a while in a pot in olive oil to get some flavour out of it. But be sure not to burn it! Then pour in the crushed tomatoes, add the spices and check the taste. Then add the spinach (if it's frozen) and let the sauce simmer for a while. Chop the tofu into tiny pieces and add it into the sauce.

Then, make the white sauce. I never quite succeed with this one but I try anyway ;) I guess another option is to pour some sort of cooking cream thing over the cannellonis (which you have flavoured firts with salt+whatever first). But I have never tried that.

When you're finished with the sauce, it's time to start filling th cannelloni shells. Just shove in the mush and then place them into a baking dish, then pour the white stuff over them and then add grated cheese on top. Then just bake it in the oven in about 250 degrees (if I remember right) for 20 minutes or so.

You can basically fill them with anything you like, this is just one option.
