Basic Meatballs with Variations

Meatballs are infinitely versatile; they can be filled with lots of vegetables (think chopped carrots and celery) and they can be dressed in different sauces. They can be made with ground chicken, turkey, beef, lamb, or veal (or even a combination). I hope these six meatball variations inspire you in the kitchen to reinvent this dinner staple. Yields 35 1-inch balls.

Method of cooking the meatball Hello,

I really like the simplicity of the recipe but one concern I have is there is no explanation on which method is best or recommended to cook it? Should it be baked (what temperature?), cooked on a frying pan, or thrown in the microwave (wouldn't recommend but possible).
