Инструкции
- For sauce: Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add in onion, celery, carrot, and garlic; saute/fry till tender, about 8 min. Add in wine and cook 3 min. Add in crushed tomatoes, stock, and basil; bring to boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 30 min to blend flavors. Season with salt and pepper. Cold.
- For manicotti: Place ricotta cheese in strainer set over large bowl. Let stand till excess liquid drains from cheese, about 2 hrs. Transfer ricotta cheese to medium bowl. Stir in Asiago cheese, spinach, nutmeg, and cayenne. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Fold in egg.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Oil 2 large baking sheets. Brush both sides of aubergine slices with extra virgin olive oil; arrange on prepared sheets. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake till aubergine slices are tender, about 13 min. Cold on sheets.
- Place 1 aubergine slice on work surface. Place scant 2 Tbsp. ricotta mix near narrower end of aubergine slice. Roll up, enclosing filling. Repeat with remaining aubergine slices and filling.
- Spread half of sauce over bottom of 13- by 9- by 2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange aubergine manicotti in single layer atop sauce. Spoon remaining sauce over. (Manicotti can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake manicotti till heated through, about 20 min. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.
