   bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20     
   minutes. Cool for 30 minutes. Stir in egg, cheese,        
   basil and pepper. Moisten hands with water and shape

   at a time, for 3-4 minutes or until crisp and golden,     
   turning often. Drain on paper towels. Garnish with        
   parsely if desired. Source: Taste of Home.
