About

This dish proves that one is allowed, even in Italy, pasta with meatballs (although perhaps not served with spaghetti). The following recipe is traditional and delicious. Hard-boiled egg is often added. Being a bit of a ponce, I might add 18 boiled quails’ eggs to the recipe below, as they are only a little larger than the meatballs, but here it is without.
