The Extra Idea

Besides pan-frying, the meatballs can be cooked in the microwave oven at 500w for 3 and a half minutes, or in the traditional oven, preheated, with fan, at 340°F for about 15 minutes, turning them halfway through, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You can also make the recipe using boiled broccoli to dress pasta or with other drained legumes that may have been left unused.
