simple arancini
Ingredients
Leftover risotto, cold (at least 100g)
100g Flour
2 eggs, beaten
100g Panko breadcrumbs
1 litre of vegetable oil
Method
1. Use your hands to form little balls from the leftover risotto.
2. Arrange the flour, beaten eggs and breadcrumbs into three separate bowls. Roll the risotto balls into the flour, then the egg and then the breadcrumbs. Set aside until you’re ready to fry.
3. Carefully heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan until it is 170c or until a breadcrumb sizzles upon contact.
4. Use a slotted spoon to carefully lower the arancini into the hot oil and cook them in batches until golden brown, leaving to drain on kitchen paper towel.
5. Once cool, serve them with a spicy tomato sauce on the side or simply enjoy them on their own.
