  1. Take the Romanesco broccoli and separate the florets. Wash them and steam them for 20-30 minutes (cooking time varies depending on the size of the florets).
  2. Once cooked, mash the broccoli with a fork and add salt, eggs, breadcrumbs, and grated cheese. As a variation to grana cheese, you can use your favorite cheese: caciocavallo, asiago, scamorza, etc..
  3. When all the ingredients are well mixed, shape the mixture into balls with your hands and coat them in white polenta flour. If this is not available, you can use breadcrumbs.
