Number Of Ingredients 6

2 c rice (riso superfine arborio)
4 eggs
1/2 c parmesan cheese
1 Tbsp parsley (we like parsley so we add more)
1 pinch salt to your desired taste
2 large garlic cloves (use 3 cloves if small)

Steps:

  • 1. Using a 4 liter pot, cover rice with water, bring to boil. Simmer for 20 minutes or until rice is soft or well cooked. Let cool until cold.
  • 2. Add 4 eggs, parmesan cheese, salt, parsley and garlic to the rice in a large bowl. Mix well - Mush it, squish it and mix all ingredients by hand.
  • 3. Mold the balls into desired shape (helps to coat your hands with oil to avoid sticking)
  • 4. Fill a deep frying pan with Mazola corn oil...enough to cover at least half of a rice ball...heat oil and carefully place the formed rice balls into the heated oil. Turn quickly, when golden brown place on plate and allow to cool.

I've tried many rice ball recipes, but this one is by far the best. The rice balls are perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. I will definitely be making these again!

These rice balls were a hit with my family! The recipe was easy to follow and the results were delicious. I especially loved the crispy outer layer and the cheesy, gooey center.
