Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 recipe microwave yellow risotto -- chilled

2 tablespoons soymage parmesan substitute -- or soy-free alternative

FILLING:

2/3 cup cold -- thick, “meaty” spaghetti sauce, such as

Brian’s Wine-free Mushroom Tomato Sauce -

Ragu Alla Brian -- with hamburger replacement added

1/2 cup thawed frozen petit pois (baby peas)

1 cups fine fresh bread crumbs -- (1-1 1/2)

 

Mix the risotto with the soy Parmesan, set aside, then combine the cold sauce

with the peas for the filling. For each ball, measure out 1/4 cup risotto and

another 1 tablespoon, kept separate. Place the 1/4 cup risotto in the palm of

one hand, and flatten it slightly. Place 1 tablespoon of the filling in the

Center of the risotto. Close up your hand to make the rice enclose the filling,

using the extra 1 tablespoon rice to cover the gap at the top. Form the rice

firmly into a ball. (You can flatten this slightly, if you prefer.)

 

Dredge the balls in the bread crumbs until completely coated. Place the balls on

a greased cookie sheet, and refrigerate to firm up while you heat the oven to

350°F.

 

Spray the balls with a fine mist of olive oil from a pump sprayer (like an

Eco-Pump or Donvier Spray pump. Bake 15 minutes, then turn over and bake 15

minutes longer, or until golden. These can be eaten “as is” or as a snack, or

served with a tomato juice.

NOTES : Author's note: “Arancini” means oranges, referring to the golden color

of these crispy rice balls, I suppose. They are a popular Sicilian dish. Since

they can be a bit complicated to make, I only make them when I have leftover

Yellow Risotto and leftover “meaty” spaghetti sauce on hand. (You can double the

recipes on purpose when you are making them and then have these the next day.
