An evaluation of cooking methods revealed differences in moisture and fat content. The differences in cooking properties of meatballs were observed. Pan-fried meatballs had the lowest cooking yield(80.9%), baked meatballs had the lowest fat retention (87.4%) and the highest (48.9%) moisture retention. Shrinkage was highest for grilled meatballs (10.3%) and was almost the same for baked (8.9%) and pan-fried (7.6%) meatballs. Keywords:
