Crab Arancini (Deviled Crab Balls) Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by á-8003

Number Of Ingredients 7

Vegetable oil, for frying
Flour, for coating
2 large eggs, beaten with a splash of water
1 cup fine breadcrumbs
1 cup fine cornmeal
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
1 recipe Deviled Crab Risotto Milanese, chilled Deviled Crab Risotto Milanese

Steps:

  • In a deep, heavy pot, heat 3 inches of oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F-375°F on a deep-fry thermometer. (To test: A wooden kitchen spoon will bubble around the handle when inserted in the oil.) On a plate, add a small pile of flour. On a second plate, add the beaten eggs. On a third plate, mix the breadcrumbs, cornmeal and Old Bay seasoning. Using a scoop, make 2-inch balls of the risotto, rolling them with your hands (wet your palms in warm water every now and then). Coat the balls in the flour, then in the beaten egg, then in the seasoned breadcrumbs. Working in batches, add the risotto balls to the hot oil and cook until deep golden, about 3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel-lined rack to cool briefly, then serve immediately.

I'm not a fan of seafood, but I loved these arancini! The crab flavor was subtle and the overall flavor was very well-balanced.

These were a bit too oily for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.
