Lentils and cotechino meatballs

Ingredients

For four people: 150 g cotechino sausage - 300 g D'Amico lentils - 2 medium cooked potatoes - 3 eggs - peanut oil to taste - 250 g breadcrumbs - salt and pepper to taste - chopped parsley to taste - chopped thyme to taste - 60 g grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese - 00 flour to taste

Instructions

Cut the cotechino into small pieces. Drain the lentils. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or food mill.

Pour the lentils into a bowl together with the potatoes, 2 egg yolks, Parmesan cheese, parsley, chopped thyme, salt and pepper to taste. Mix the ingredients well. With lightly greased palms, form classic meatballs weighing about 30/35 g.

Coat the meatballs by first dipping them in flour, then in egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. Repeat the process twice if necessary. Place the meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, drizzle with seed oil, and bake for about 14 minutes in a preheated oven at 350°F. Serve!
