Ingredients
DESCRIPTION
Traditional arancini recipes are bread crumb crusted fried risotto balls that are deep fried and look a little bit like small oranges (arancini is Italian for “little orangeâ€). Most recipes call for plain or Italian breadcrumbs but I opt for panko crumbs instead for extra crunch. It’s a deviation from the tradition but I think add a spectacular crunch to the end result. I like to rinse my hands with fresh tap water after forming every three or four balls, to keep my hands clean and to keep the rice from sticking. Just shake your hands dry, don’t use a towel, to keep your hands moist to help form the balls.
INGREDIENTS
- 3 1/4 cup to 3 3/4 cup chicken stock
- 2 tablespoon grated Kerrygold Dubliner
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 8 ounces fresh buffalo mozzarella

- 2 cups Panko bread crumbs
- 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

- 1 cup dry white wine
- oil for frying
- 1 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 3 ounces thin sliced pancetta
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound spinach
- 2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
