Step 4

Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit).

Grease a baking tray with vegetable oil, then shape small balls out of the broccoli mixture, I ended up with 13 balls, but depending on the size, you might get more or less.

Bake for 30 minutes or until lightly golden brown, turning them on the other side half the way through baking.
