To Prepare the White Sauce

  1. In a bowl, beat the Kiri cheese, Italian seasoning and milk together until smooth.
  2. Mix in the Parmesan cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper.

To Assemble

  1. Grease a large roasting tray, then pour some of the white sauce into the base and spread evenly.
  2. Lay the cannelloni on top in a single layer.
  3. Pour the white sauce all over, aiming for an even coating that should just cover the pasta.
  4. Bake at 200 degrees for 20-30 minutes depending on if you like your cannelloni saucy or firm.
  5. Garnish with oregano fresh leaves and serve.
