Magical Arancini step by step
- Prepare your assembly line. Risotto, mozzarella, egg beaten in a bowl, flour, breadcrumbs in a bowl.
- Form small balls of risotto, placing a very small piece of mozzarella inside each one..
- Tip: remove any large bits of filling from the outer edges (e.g. mushrooms, courgette etc.).
- Roll the balls in egg, then flour, then egg again and then breadcrumbs until entirely covered.
- Gluten free - either get GF breadcrumbs, or just use GF flour and skip the breadcrumbs. Sonia on Cookpad used ground almonds too!.
- Leave to set in the fridge for at least an hour.
- Two options now for cooking: fry or bake. I actually prefer baking in the oven - less mess, smells, wasted oil. Also healthier. But you don’t always have an oven when you NEED arancini....
- To bake - Spray or brush with oil and place in the oven at 180c for 20-30mins, turning once..
- To fry - Heat up a pan with oil (deeper the better). It’s hot enough if you drop a breadcrumb in and it sizzles..
- Fry in the deep oil, turning often so they are brown and crispy all over!.
