Can I have some of those please?

So the first time I saw this recipe, I knew I wanted to try it. This recipe is modified from the original one found in "Betty Crocker's- easy everyday vegetarian". Spaghetti and spicy rice balls 1 pkg (16oz) whole wheat spaghetti 1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats 1 bunch spring onion, roughly chopped 1/4 cup unseasoned bread crumbs 1/4 cup milk 1 tbsp fresh parsley 1 tbsp dried oregano (fresh would be great) 1/2 tsp red chilli powder 1 egg, beaten 1/2 cup wheat germ vegetable oil salt and pepper to taste store bought tomato pasta sauce (I used the entire bottle!) 1. Cook, drain spaghetti 2. In a medium bowl, mix rice, oats, bread crumbs, spring onion, milk, herbs, chilli powder and egg. Add salt and pepper to taste (When I cooked the rice, I added salt and pepper). Shape the mixture; coat the rice balls with wheat germ 3. In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook rice balls in it, until light golden brown. 4. Heat pasta sauce
