drippings before serving. Makes 30 meatballs. While meatballs bake,
cook noodles in lightly salted boiling water, until just tender. Cook

C water, soy sauce and cornstarch. Bring to a boil, stirring
constantly. Add drained noodles; stir gently until coated. Cut green
onions into brushes or into 2-inch pieces. Cut each piece length wise
