INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350F. Spread the tomato sauce in the bottoms of 4
individual gratin dishes or in the bottom of a shallow baking dish
just large enough to hold 8 cannelloni in one layer. In a saucepan
melt the butter over moderately low heat, whisk in the flour, and
cook the roux, whisking, for 3 minutes. Add the milk in a stream,
whisking, simmer the bechamel, whisking constantly, for 2 minutes,
and season it with salt and pepper. Transfer the bechamel to a bowl
and let it cool, covered. In a pan of hot water let the sheets of
lasagne soak for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are softened. To the
bechamel add the cod, the Swiss chard with roasted pepper, the
chopped basil, and salt and pepper to taste and combine the mixture
well.
If using the square lasagne sheets halve each sheet to form 2
rectangles. Working with 1 rectangle at a time, spread about 1/3 cup
of the cod mixture lengthwise down the center of each sheet,
beginning with a long side roll up the sheet to enclose the filling,
leaving both ends open, and arrange 2 cannelloni, seam sides down, in
each dish, spooning some of the tomato sauce over them. Bake the
cannelloni, covered with foil, in the middle of the oven for 230 to
25 minutes, or until they are heated through, garnish them with the
basil sprigs, and serve them with the Parmesan.
Serves 4.
