A Italian classic normally served as a starter, these cheese filled arancini are crispy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside. A perfect lunch box filler

Ingredients

  • Risotto rice

  • vegetable stock

  • onions and garlic

  • salt, pepper and italian herbs

  • saffron

  • fresh basil and parsley

  • grated cheese

  • cream cheese

  • eggs

  • gluten free flour

  • oil to fry

  • white wine

Preparation

STEP 1

Cook a whole bag of risotto rice in the rice cooker with the saffron, a dash of oil and salt. Fry the onions, garlic and grated carrot until golden and mix with the rice in a large bowl.


STEP 2

Dissolve two vegetable stock cubes in half a cup of hot water and add this to the mix, mix in a tub of cream cheese, grated cheese, egg and a few tablespoons of gluten free flour to bind the mixture together.

Leave the mixture in the fridge for half an hour to set and make it easier to make into balls without sticking to your hands. Roll the mixture into balls the size of golf balls and then coat the outside in flour before frying.
