Preparation:

1. Roughly chop the pasta.
2. Add the eggs, breadcrumbs and cheese. Mix and add salt, and pepper to taste.
3. Scoop up a ball and flatten it slightly to test if it holds together well.
4. Heat olive oil in a fry pan over medium high heat.
5. Scoop up a level ½ cup of the mixture (packed well) and place in the fry pan.
6. Cook the first side for around 2 minutes or until it turns dark brown and crispy. Turn, then cook the other side until crispy (around 1 to 1½ minutes).
7. Remove from the pan onto a paper towel to drain. Repeat with remaining batter.
8. Serve immediately. Garnish with finely chopped parsley leaves, freshly grated parmesan cheese and some pasta sauce, if desired.
