Cómo preparar Manicotti Homemade

  1. **Make the Sauce:**
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a 5-quart Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced. Sauté for 5 minutes, until softened.
  3. Stir in 2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add 1 1/2 cups water, mashing tomatoes with a fork.
  4. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour.
  5. **Make the Manicotti Shells:**
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups water until smooth.
  7. Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour 3 tablespoons of batter into the hot skillet, swirling quickly to coat the bottom evenly.
  9. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until lightly golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
  10. Stack cooled manicotti shells with waxed paper between each layer.
  11. **Make the Filling:**
  12. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  13. In a large bowl, combine 15 ounces ricotta cheese, 8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 large eggs, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.
  14. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
  15. Spread about 1/4 cup of the filling down the center of each manicotti shell and roll up.
  16. **Assemble and Bake:**
  17. Pour 1 1/2 cups of sauce into the bottom of each 2-quart baking dish.
  18. Arrange 8 manicotti shells, seam-side down, in a single layer in each dish. Top with 5 more manicotti shells.
  19. Cover with the remaining sauce (about 1 cup per dish).
  20. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan cheese.
  21. Bake uncovered for 30-40 minutes, or until bubbly and heated through.
  22. **To Freeze:**
  23. Line a baking dish with a large piece of aluminum foil. Assemble the manicotti as directed.
  24. Fold the foil over to seal tightly. Freeze in the dish.
  25. Once frozen, remove from the dish. To serve, thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then bake uncovered at 350°F for 1 hour.
