Arancini


We’ll be busy tonight making a large batch of arancini for Moseley Farmers Market. This Sicilian dish was originally made with left over risotto but now is a major trend on the street food scene.

We make a decent risotto- this is the main part of the dish so has to be good. We then form into balls- each ball has a little chunk of mozzarella inside- coat (twice) in egg and breadcrumbs before frying until crispy. The best way to serve is with a drizzle of pesto and eat either on their own as a starter or to compliment a main meal. We’ll be serving to eat there and then or to take away and reheat yourselves.



Looks like it will be a nice day tomorrow!
