Recipe Notes
Alternatively, it is possible to cook the balls in the oven or in a pan and the sauce separately.
For those who are intolerant to dairy products, it is possible to replace cheeses with lactose-free ones.
For celiacs, on the other hand, it is necessary to replace breadcrumbs with gluten-free bread.
