Crepe Cannelloni with Cheese & White Sauce

Step 1

In a large bowl with a whisk beat the eggs and water, approximately 1 minute, add the salt and the flour 1 cup at a time and continue to beat till smooth.**

Step 2

In a small frying pan or crepe pan, (I lightly greased the pan once with a brush) using a ¼ cup ladle (or ¼ cup) on low to medium heat, pour the crepe mixture in the pan, using the bottom of the ladle to spread the mixture (or a spoon) but don't make them too large or too small. (in the picture the plate is 7 inches (18 cm). Crepes cook quite quickly, so watch carefully, approximately 20 seconds on each side, they should be cooked but not browned. When cooked move to a separate plate, continue until all are cooked.

Step 3

In a large pot melt butter over medium heat, blend in the flour and salt, gradually stir in milk , cook and stir over medium heat until mixture begins to bubble and thicken, remove from heat.

Step 4

On a wooden board or small plate, place 1 crepe at a time, in the middle of the crepe add 3-4 cubes of mozzarella, 3-4 cubes of fontal cheese and 1-2 teaspoons (dessert spoon) of grated parmesan cheese. Roll up the crepe. (I usually go for 4 cubes of each and 2 dessert spoons of parmesan cheese)

Step 5

Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C).

Step 6

In a medium baking pan (I used a 12x10inch/30x25cm) spread a ladle (using a ½ cup ladle (or more if needed)) of sauce on the bottom of the pan and then line with stuffed cannelloni (they can be touching) top with remaining white sauce and cubes of mozzarella and sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese. Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes. Enjoy.
