Traditional Oven – Meatballs with Peas Recipe

Ingredients (4 serves)

• 7 oz medium or small peas
• 17,5 oz potatoes
• 1 egg
• Half a shallot
• 2 tablespoons grated cheese
• 4 tablespoons breadcrumbs
• Salt
• Pepper
• Oil
• Basil leaves

Directions

Boil the potatoes in salted water for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, fry the shallot in a large pan with a drizzle of oil and add the peas. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and cook for 5 minutes. When the ingredients are ready, pour them into a large bowl and add the egg, grated cheese, 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs and finely chopped basil leaves. Mix everything with the help of a fork and, once you have obtained a homogeneous mixture, prepare the meatballs with your hands. About a dozen should come.

Once the meatballs are prepared, bread them in a bowl and place them in an aluminium tray. Wet them with a drizzle of oil and put them in a preheated oven at 392° F for about 20 minutes. Alternatively, you can also fry them in a pan with plenty of boiling oil. Cooked the meatballs, decorate them with basil leaves and serve in our single-use aluminium plates.
