  • Roll them up around the filling. 
  • Place the rolls in an ovenproof dish with the seams facing down. 
  • Pour the white wine sauce over your cannelloni and bake them in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the surface is golden. It is important to ladle the sauce over the rolls with a spoon a couple of times during baking, so the pasta becomes tender and the surface of the dish does not dry out.
