Try these simple cannelloni – they’re great as a vegetarian alternative.
Preheat the oven to 190ºC/375ºF/gas 5. Mix half the Parmesan, the mascarpone, the taleggio, the lemon zest and juice, and the walnuts. Put ¼ of the mixture to one side, then combine the remaining cheese mixture with the spinach and season to taste. Fry the sage leaves in hot butter and crumble ½ into the cheese and spinach mixture, saving the rest for the top. Put a good spoonful of the cheese and spinach mixture along one of the longer edges of each lasagne sheet and roll up. Put them in a flat oven dish, dot with the leftover cheese mixture, drizzle over ¼ of a glass of water and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and crispy sage leaves. Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
ingredients
• a handful of Parmesan, grated
• 2 x 250g tubs of mascarpone
• 100g taleggio cheese, grated
• zest and juice of 2 lemons
• a handful of chopped walnuts
• 180g bag of baby spinach, chopped
• sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 20g pack of fresh sage
• 2 knobs of butter
• 1 packet of fresh lasagne – 12 sheets

Lads, don't worry about Vegetarian Parmesan or not.. Just enjoy the dish... Jamie simply states that it doesn't include bolognese sauce.... Keep it simple!

can the sage leaves be replaced by bay leaves?

Hi Jamie. I'm Élia, I live in Portugal. I like you're program and cooks. I'm a big, big fan. I liked to know how many books you publish. I liked to have got you're last book. You , if possible, offer the book for me, our give me the name off you're last book.<br />
Thancks for the attencion. And one big, big kiss for you, for your wife and daughters.

vegetarian is several things:<br />
"vegan" is no animal products whatsoever<br />
"ovo-vegetarian" is eggs included in an otherwise non-animal diet<br />
"lacto-vegetarian" is dairy products from milk in an otherwise non-animal diet<br />
"ovo-lacto" includes eggs as well as dairy<br />
so according to this, jamie's above recipe is lacto-vegetarian. and it looks nice btw. i'ma try it out =)

Italian Parmesan cheese isn't vegetarian. If you're in the EU you shouldn't be able to find something labeled as Parmesan that is veggie as it has protected geographical status under EU law - i.e. you can't claim something is the authentic Italian cheese unless it's made in the right place in the traditional way - which means it will have been made with animal rennet. The only fake Parmesan I've found that is suitable for vegetarians is the non-dairy 'Parmesan style' version which tastes awful. I seriously doubt Jamie is suggesting we use that. I have been told Gran Moravia hard cheese from Sainsburys is a suitable alternative to use - but I've not actually tried it.<br />
<br />
Jamie - please, please, please stop putting Parmesan cheese in vegetarian recipes. It makes restaurants and pubs add it to their veggie options - meaning I can't eat anything!

@steve oxbrow - you can actually get parmesan with non-animal rennet (in Australia anyway). http://www.countryvalley.com.au/highlandorganics.html

I'm from Guadeloupe (French territories), and i really love your cooking, you are not like some of these french chiefs thinking they're the best. You're passionate and so is your cooking. You really deserve the life you're living and the "job" that you do. <br />
I never fail your recipes, you're just amazing, keep beeing yourself.<br />
Sorry for my english .

This dish is vegetarian just not vegan.

sorry to be a party pooper jamie but parmesan is quite definitely NOT VEGETARIAN. The substitute PARMEZANO (TM) much derided by uour fellow chefs is derived from soya and is Vegan.

I had never heard of Jamie Oliver until some friends told me about his show here in America where he is trying to revolutionize our pitiful disgusting diet (especially in school lunches). I applaud this effort so I will watch his show tonight. However, I came to the recipe section expecting to find healthy recipes and found lots like this, that are anything but healthy. Tasty, but definitely not healthy. Does he not practice what he preaches? If I served food like this to my family we would balloon into big fat Americans just as fast as if we ate at Burger King (though it would taste a billion times better for sure).
If anyone from the website is reading these posts, I suggest that you create a "healthy recipes" section within the recipe category. At least then people who listen to his message can find useful advice on his website instead of getting confused when they find nothing but recipes filled with cheese and butter and, in some cases, bacon. Yuck.

Jamie i was watching your program and you were making Cannalloni, you had sheets allready made. What sheets were they or is it best to make your own.
Thank you

Taleggio has a strong aroma, but its flavor is comparatively mild with an unusual fruity tang, according to Wikipedia.
I found some today, it's Italian so your best bet would to be to find a store which specializes in Italian food.
It's pongy but nice :)

Hey Jamie!
I would like to say that I am a massive fan of yours! I love the food you cook (especially Italian) and all of your tv shows! And I especiall love the fact that you're not like most chef's who serve tiny portions and are afraid to touch their food.
Thank you for inspiring us all to cook! Many a time you've saved us from another boring meal at home!

Hola soy una gran fan de sus programas de TV, he hecho varias de sus recetas e incluso he comprado algunos de sus libros. Me encantaria que la web trajera una opción en español, para poder realizar algunas de las recetas.
Gracias por hacer de la cocina algo mas sencilla, deliciosa y al alcance de mi familia.

Like Diana of Jan 15, I would like to view the recipe for the cauliflower/Broccoli stuffed cannelloni - I have most of the ingredients and method but would like to review. Want to cook this on Feb 14 for valentines so pleeese post before then.
Many thanks.

to Patti Garland. Jamie uses fresh pasta. If you buy dried lasagna sheets, you need to pre-cook it.

Looks OK...if you can get manicotti shells (which cannelloni is made from) so much the better...just pre-boil. Since my old man was from Palermo his (passed down) recipes were fairly rustic...we used ricotta in all our fillings and a thin layer of mozzarella as well for cannelloni. Main thing!...in southern Italy & Sicily peccorino Romano was always used, more strident than Parmegiano...but then again, there always seems to be a North vs South in cookery (and politics)...how else could Northern Italians wind up with gnocchi?...( German, definitely) Pete.
