STEP BY STEP:
- Boil the cannelloni plates in a casserole with water and salt for the time indicated by the manufacturer. Drain and spread them out on a clean cloth. Reserve them.
- Peel and chop the leek and the garlic clove. Wash and cut the zucchini into squares. Scrape the carrot and cut it into squares the same size as the zucchini.
- Sauté the leek in a pan with two tablespoons of oil until transparent. Add the minced garlic and the rest of the vegetables and cook for another 5 minutes; they should be crispy. Season and mix with the crab meat. Next, fill the cannelloni with this preparation./li>
