PREPARATIONS
This dish is made with my Jalapeño Oil. If you want to replace it, you can use olive oil instead and for the pulp in the cilantro-yogurt sauce, use 1-2 fresh jalapeños + 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a small bowl, add cumin, salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, cayenne, and Cajun seasoning. Finely chop half of a fresh chili and add it to the spices. Finally, add 2 tablespoons of Jalapeño Oil and the juice of half a lime, and mix everything into a creamy paste. Wash the shrimp, pat dry, and place in a bowl. Add the creamy marinade and mix well to evenly coat all the shrimp. Set aside at room temperature.
  2. Wash and let your rice cook according to the package instructions.
  3. Meanwhile, in a tall container, blend yogurt, the pulp from making the Jalapeño Oil, 1-2 peeled garlic cloves, cilantro, parsley, salt, and pepper with an immersion blender until smooth. Set aside.
  4. Next, peel the mango, avocado, and red onion. Chop everything into small pieces and put in a medium bowl. Mix with the juice of half a lime and a little salt, and set aside.
  5. Wash and pat dry the mung bean sprouts and set aside.
  6. Heat 2 tablespoons of Jalapeño Oil in a frying pan and add the shrimp along with the remaining marinade. Briefly fry the shrimp on both sides and let the sauce reduce at the same time.
  7. In a deep bowl, distribute the rice, place mung bean sprouts on one side and the mango-avocado salad on the other. Add 1-2 tablespoons of the green cilantro-yogurt sauce to the sprouts, then lay the shrimp on top and drizzle with the sauce from the pan. You can also top it off with fresh lime juice, fresh cilantro, and fresh chili.

Description

Recommended Equipment

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • vegetable peeler
  • large pot
  • baking dish
  • medium-sized pot
  • whisk
  • medium-sized bowl
  • piping bag

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 24 cannelloni roles
  • 40 grams parmesan
  • 125 grams mozzarella
  • fresh basil

BEEF SAUCE

  • 500 grams minced beef
  • 500 grams minced pork
  • 700 milliliters beef stock
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp clarified butter
  • 1 white onion
  • 1/2 celery stick
  • 1 carrot
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 100 milliliters dry white wine
  • 800 grams canned tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

BECHAMEL SAUCE

  • 500 milliliters full-fat cow milk
  • 50 grams butter
  • 50 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 tsp white pepper
  • 3/8 tsp salt
  • freshly grated nutmeg to taste

Instructions

  1. Peel the carrots, onion, and garlic, and chop them along with the celery into very small pieces. Set aside.
  2. Melt the clarified butter in a large pot and thoroughly brown the minced meat until a nice crust forms on the bottom. Then remove the meat from the pot and set it aside in a bowl.
  3. Now add the carrots, onion, garlic, and celery to the pot with 1 tbsp butter and sauté for about 5 minutes until soft. Deglaze with white wine and scrape up the crusty from the bottom. Return the ground meat to the pot along with tomato paste and a pinch of salt. Sauté for 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add beef broth and canned tomatoes and simmer over medium heat for about 1 hour without a lid. The consistency should be creamy-thick, neither too liquid nor too solid, just firm enough so that it doesn’t run out of the cannelloni when filling them. Now add oregano, salt, pepper, chili, and cinnamon, and season well. Set the filling aside to cool slightly.
  5. Meanwhile, prepare the béchamel sauce. The recipe can be found here: Béchamel Sauce. Once prepared, set it aside. Preheat the oven to 200°C / 392°F.
  6. Set up your cannelloni filling station. You’ll need the meat filling in the pot, a piping bag, a baking dish, and a spoon. Place about 4 tablespoons of the meat filling at the bottom of the baking dish. Fill your piping bag with a few tablespoons of the filling and pipe it into the cannelloni. I recommend not overfilling the piping bag to maintain control. Fill all the cannelloni one by one and arrange them in a single layer over the sauce in your baking dish. Spread the remaining sauce over the cannelloni.
  7. Next, pour the béchamel over the cannelloni, ensuring all gaps are filled with sauce. Top with grated mozzarella and Parmesan.
  8. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the foil, increase the oven temperature to 220°C / 428°F, and bake for an additional 15 minutes until the cheese is crispy. Optionally, you can slice fresh basil into fine strips and sprinkle over the cannelloni.

ACTIVE: 40 min

PASSIVE: 20 min

COOKING

1. Heat a large pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoons of clarified butter. Start by sautéing the white parts of the green onions, ginger, and garlic for a few minutes. Next, add the carrot pieces and sauté for a few more minutes. Then, add the mushroom pieces, mix well, and finally add the napa cabbage. Let the napa cabbage cook until soft, then stir everything together. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool.

2. Once the mixture has cooled down, add 2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro, the green parts of the green onions, 1/4 teaspoon of ground white pepper, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil. Mix everything well.

3. Set up your vegetable filling, the dumpling wrappers, and a small bowl of cold water. Also, prepare a large plate dusted with a little flour where you can place your finished dumplings. Now, put on your favorite series or podcast and start filling your dumplings 🙂

4. Take a wrapper and place about 1-1.5 teaspoons of the vegetable mixture in the center. Dip a finger in the water and moisten the edge of the upper half of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper like a taco shell upwards and press the left tip of the wrapper with your left hand. Now, with the right hand’s index finger and thumb, hold the closed tip with your left thumb, place a small fold at the top edge against the backside of the wrapper and press it firmly. Continue this until the wrapper is completely closed and you have a finished dumpling in your hand. Place the finished dumpling on the floured plate. This folding technique might take a little practice. For a visual demonstration, just scroll down to my video at the end of the recipe 🙂 Continue this process until all the dumpling wrappers and filling are used up.

5. Fill a medium-sized pot with enough water to fill just over half the pot. Bring the water to a boil.

6. Meanwhile, you can prepare the Sesame Miso Soup in the other pot. Add the following ingredients to the pot: tahini, white miso paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, crispy chili oil, water, and grated garlic and ginger. Bring everything to a simmer over medium heat. Keep the soup on a low flame on the stove.

7. Once the water in the other pot is boiling, turn it down slightly and add 6-8 dumplings depending on the size of your pot and let them cook for about 8 minutes. Since dumplings expand while cooking, do not overcrowd your pot. Once the dumplings become translucent and the filling is clearly visible, they are done. Place the dumplings in the bowls in which you want to serve them. Continue this for all dumplings until all are cooked.

8. Once all dumplings are ready, evenly distribute the soup from the other pot over the dumplings. Top each bowl with some cilantro, Crispy Chili Oil, and toasted sesame seeds.
