Do you fancy an appetizing dish? Maybe with a slightly magical name? With the 'meatballs of the dragon' you can try to put even herbs on the children's table, an ingredient that is often little loved. And if that's not enough, try to come up with a good story about the mysterious properties of dragon meatballs ...
Ingredients
600 gr of herbs
300 g cheese
100 gr of grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg
Salt, pepper, breadcrumbs to taste
Method
Boil the herbs in abundant salted water for about ten minutes, so that they soften well. Once cooked, drain and let them cool in a colander so as to lose all the excess water, squeeze them with your hand if necessary and finally cut them into small pieces. Subsequently, separately in a bowl, mix the herbs, egg, softened ricotta, salt, pepper and breadcrumbs to create a compact mixture. With your hands, form meatballs and pass them in the breadcrumbs. Put the meatballs in a baking dish with a drizzle of oil and cook at 200 degrees for 20 minutes.
