Arancini balls or risotto balls (which translates to little oranges) are little balls of risotto that are stuffed with cheese. Arancini is often stuffed with cheese too, but I've omitted this as well. That doesn't mean this baked arancini is healthy, but it's a little more virtuous than its deep-fried, cheese-stuffed counterpart. Done correctly, baked arancini has the same crunchy exterior and creamy interior as the fried variety, without the greasiness.
Steps to make Baked Arancini:
- In a wide vessel put the left over rice, add onions, green chilli, coriander leaves, salt, mashed potatoes, black pepper, oregano and red chilli flakes. Mash them up with the help of a potato masher.
- Cut mozzarella cheese into cubes and keep them aside.
- In a pan heat 1 tsp of olive oil and add the finely chopped sausages and sauté with pizza sauce.
- In a bowl beat an egg with 1 tbsp of olive oil and keep aside.
- Wet your palms and make lemon sized balls of the rice mix, flatten them and add the sausage and cheese filling.
- Wrap them up into balls again.
- Once all balls are ready dip them into egg wash and roll them into bread crumbs, and place them into a baking tray with butter paper lined in it.
- Now place the tray into a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 30 mins… or till the outer crust turns golden brown and crisp.
- Serve with dip made with hung curd and green mint chutney added to it.
- The vegetarians can replace sausages with paneer, or mushrooms or soya keema…. and for egg wash can use thin corn flour or maida paste.
Use a dessert spoon to coat the balls with panko. Baked Leftover Risotto Cheesy Rice Balls (arancini) are the perfect baked alternative to traditional arancini. Crispy and delicious, they are a great dish. Heat the oil and butter in a saucepan until foamy. Add the garlic and cook for another min.
