Spinach filling

Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan, sauté the onion and garlic for approx. 2 mins., gradually add the spinach, cook until all the liquid has evaporated, season. Allow the spinach to cool a little, chop finely, stir in the parmesan.

Sauce

Heat the oil in a pan. Sauté the onion and garlic, add the tomatoes and water, season. Simmer the sauce over a medium heat for approx. 20 mins., stirring occasionally.

Spoon a little sauce into the prepared dish, add the involtini, spread the remaining sauce around the involtini, sprinkle with cheese.
