On the weekend, Iron Chefs David, Jason, Rob and myself got together for a bit of cooking before a night out at the movies. We wanted something pretty basic so we could just prepare it, chuck it in the oven and relax a little. I thought some kind of pasta bake or cannelloni would be the best option for that. We choose a recipe on Taste.com.au for roast vegetable cannelloni.
This looked a little more interesting that your standard spinach and ricotta cannelloni, and it seemed pretty basic to make. However, what may seem simple actually took us 2.5 hours to make! We were having a good old laugh when we saw that the recipe preparation time stated 20 mins and cooking time 30 mins! The main thing that stuffed us up was the char-grilling of the vegetables. We didn't have a BBQ or grill, so we had to oven roast them which took longer.
Iron Chef Rob did most of the work, and they were a great success. So deliciously tasty accompanied by Iron Chef David's lovely garden salad. Another successful cook off complete!

I think I'll have to buy some eggplant, cannelloni and ricotta and make this - it looks great.
