                                    Turn oven to 220 C Mix all the ingredients in a bowl, I do it with my hands Roll into balls with wet hands. If you can, place meatballs in a single layer on a grid on top of a baking tray so they can drain Bake for 12 - 15 minutes or until halved meatball is no longer pink in the middle While meatballs bake you can cook your pasta and prepare your sauce. Bellissimo! 
                                
                                
                                
                                
                                
                    
                 
                
                
                    
                
                
                    
                        
                
                 
            
                        Introduction
These are baked allowing some of the fat to drain away and also giving you time to prepare the pasta and sauce while they are baking.
