Instructions

  • Put all the ingredients to prepare the rice in a large non-stick pan. Turn on the heat and cook over medium heat, without stirring.
  • Continue cooking until the rice has absorbed all the water.
  • Turn off the heat and pour the contents into a saucepan, leaving to cool at least 3 hours.
  • In the palm of your hand, form a ball with a handful of rice. Open the ball and fill it with a ball of filling.
  • Close well and compact with very damp hands.
  • Form a fairly liquid dough with the water and flour. Add the arancini and finish the breading with the breadcrumbs.
  • Fry in plenty of hot oil. The arancini should be completely immersed in the oil. Take out the arancini when they are golden.
  • Arrange them on absorbent paper, let cool and serve.
