Critical Success Points
- • Do not over‑blend the mixture to retain a slightly grainy texture.
- • Observe the 180 °C temperature and cooking time to get golden balls without drying them out.
- • Simmer the sauce long enough (≈15 min) for it to thicken and develop flavors.
Safety Warnings
- • Handle the hot oven carefully to avoid burns.
- • Be careful of the hot tomato sauce which can splatter.
