Cook the pasta until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain. 2. In a bowl, mix together all of the meatball ingredients. Roll into small meatballs using a tsp. 3. Heat the oil & cook the meatballs until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan. 4. In the same skillet, sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds.
