A Tip on Leftovers:

Arancini

Leftover risotto should not go to waste. It is perfect for the Italian appetizer, arancini (which translated means “little orange”).

Simple to make, try them next time you prepare risotto.

Take your leftover risotto, plain or from any recipe, and form into 2-inch diameter balls (or smaller if you are making a more delicate hors d’oeurve). They are great stuffed with a ½-inch piece of fresh mozzarella. If you’re using plain risotto, stir a little marinara sauce with the rice before forming.

Prepare a classic breading, 1 bowl of flour, 1 bowl of beaten eggs, and 1 bowl of breadcrumbs (seasoned or plain). Lightly bread and either bake in a 375F degree oven or pan fry in hot vegetable or olive oil large skillet set over medium heat. Bake/ cook until evenly browned.

These are best served immediately.
