This is one of my favorite foods! Could you somehow bake the balls instead of frying them?
Hi,i’m not a fan for frying,can i make these in the oven,thank you
You can try heating them in the oven, but they will turn out different.
Yes, you can try baking these, but the taste and texture will change. Since there is no meat in these, you can also try them raw.
