Grandma bellinos italian cookbook.
Italian arancini rice balls. Arancini are delicious crispy deep fried sicilian balls of rice with a meat sauce and mozzarella cheese filling and crunchy breadcrumb coating. These italian cauliflower rice balls arancini are made with cauliflower in place of rice. Lower in carbs and baked or made in the air fryer. My first taste of authentic arancini or italian rice balls was at stuzzi ristorante a tiny restaurant in manhattans flatiron neighborhood and just steps from.
Arancini arantini italian and sicilian plural. In the singular italian. Arancinu or arancina are stuffed rice balls which are coated. Filled with oozy cheese coated in crispy breadcrumbs and served with a kickin sauce for dunking this easy arancini recipe is just incredible perfect for using.
These cheesy deep fried rice balls are served with italian dinners as a side like a bread. Theyre great with sauce and pasta dishes. Arancini named after the little oranges that these fried rice balls are said to resemble are best known in this country as a handy way to use up leftover risotto.
