Cannelloni with buffalo mozzarella and caramelised onions

Method

1. For the pancake batter, place the eggs, flour, milk, cheese and 1 tablespoon of olive in a food processor. Blend together until it becomes a smooth batter. Set aside.

2. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan, add the onions and garlic and cook for 5 minutes.

3. Add the balsamic vinegar and continue cooking for 15 minutes over a moderate heat until softened and caramelised - all the liquid should have evaporated.

4. Preheat the oven to 200C/gas 6. While the onions are cooking, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan and make 8 pancakes with the batter.

5. Take the pancakes and place a generous amount of the onion mixture on each.

6. Scatter over pieces of fresh mozzarella and season to taste. Roll into sausage shapes and place on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and bake for 5 minutes, until hot and golden. Serve straight away with a crisp rocket salad.
