    Delicious! I made these for my vegetarian daughter and daughter-in-law but the non vegetarians in the family were doing their best to eat them all. They go very well with mint yogurt (handful of fresh mint, teaspoon of sugar and 250g plain yoghurt. Mix mint and sugar on 6 for 10 sec, add yoghurt and mix on 5 for 5 sec.)

    I made these into patties and they were yummy but I felt just a little dry so would go better with a bit of sauce on top. Would definitely make them again though.

    I'm glad you enjoyed them tmrc_emoticons.) Love you idea for a vege alternative to spagetti meatballs.

    This was delicious! Thank you. To use up leftovers I'm going to make them into little meat balls for a vege alternative to spagetti meatballs.

    Delicious! Instead of normal breadcrumbs I used Tandaco stuffing mix (whole packet), add a tbs or so of tomato paste/pizza sauce, addition 50g raw cashews and shallow fry in garlic oil.
