So Mr ShyGuy is going to the Freezing Land of nowhere to teach for a year, so I figured I'll make something fancy for one of the last meals he'll have at home. I recently bought a copy of Jamie Oliver's Save $$$ Cookbook and this Vegetarian Pumpkin and Spinach Rotolo caught my eye.
I must admit it's alot more effort than what I usually make (1 pot wonders) and this involved 3 pots and a baking tray....but it's kinda one off (for now) unless I need to impress someone I might make it again. But saying that is not to put you off from trying it, because it was really yum! And looks impressive, it wasn't very hard to do - kinda like rolling sushi, but just need to get all the components ready. Took about 1hr and 30 mins include the 30 mins baking time.
Alrite so let's get started.
