Manicotti Shells (Homemade) image

This is my Grandmother Lucia's recipe and then my Mom. It's 100 years old.

Provided by Rose Rauhauser

Categories     Pasta

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 extra large eggs
1 c flour
1 c water
pinch of salt
RICOTTA FILLING
2 c ricotta cheese
pinch of salt
1 Tbsp dried parsley
1 1/2 c shredded mozzerella
1/2 c grated parmagiano/regiano cheese
1 extra large egg

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all the ingredients for the manicotti shells, very thoroughly until no lumps exist. Lightly grease an 8 inch round pan with very little butter (just to lightly coat) With a small ladle, (like making pancakes) ladle a small amount enough to make a crepe on very low heat, one minute or two then carefully flip to the other side, a few seconds and remove to wax paper to cool. Then do each one that way, wax paper or parchment in the middle of each until batter is done. Mix your ricotta filling and take your manicotti and put the filling down the middle. Roll each end toward the middle and put toothpicks in the middle to hold each. Put sauce on top, bake at 325 for 1 hour. Let rest 15 to 30 minutes. Serve
  • 2. If you wish to make a larger amount of shells, send me a message and I will give you the increased amounts in the recipe. Thanks

I'm not a big fan of ricotta cheese, but I loved the filling in these manicotti shells. It was so creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

These manicotti shells were delicious, but I found the filling to be a bit dry. I would add more sauce next time.

The manicotti shells were a bit too al dente for my taste, but the filling was delicious. I would make them again, but I would cook the shells for a little longer.
