Ingredients
3 x cups plain flour
2 x tblspn caster sugar
3 x eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup Marsala
1 tbspn white wine vinegar
Cannoli tubes
1 x egg white
Method
- Mix the flour and caster sugar together in a large bowl and make a well in the centre.
- Pour in the eggs, Marsala and vinegar and combine together. Add enough water to make a firm dough.
- Knead for a few minutes until smooth. Cover in plastic wrap and leave in the fridge for 1 hour.
- Lightly knead the dough again and either roll out very thinly or put the dough through a pasta machine to the thinnest setting.
- Cut the dough into 10cm square, dust lightly with flour and roll around the cannoli tubes with two points meeting. Secure the points with a little egg white.
- Heat a small pan with vegetable oil until very hot.
- Using tongs, place two tubes into the hot oil and cook until golden brown (1-2 minutes).
- Remove, place on kitchen paper and allow to cool.
- When cool enough to handle, carefully remove the cannoli tubes and repeat with the remaining dough.
