Potato Cannoli
Potato Cannoli Combine an Irish staple with creative Italian cooking techniques and you arrive at great treat!
Ingredients
  • A potato
  • Butter
Cooking Instructions
  • Cut the peeled potato in half lengthwise.  From the center of the potato, cut even, full-length 1/-16 inch or thinner slices on an Asian slicer or mandoline.  You should get 15 to 20 full-size slices.
  • Wrap each potato slice around a buttered cannoli tube (about 1 inch wide) or the tip of a metal pastry cone.
  • Set, seam down, on a buttered baking sheet.  Brush each slice lightly with melted butter or margarine (about 1/2 teaspoon per slice).
  • Bake in a 400 degree oven until brown (7 to 8 minutes).   Let stand until metal forms are cool enough to touch.  Then gently twist and slide potatoes off forms.
Comments The thinner the slices, the more delicate the cannoli. If you want them for dipping, use thicker slices.
