Arancini

Arancini, also known as arancine, are Italian rice balls that are stuffed, coated with breadcrumbs and deep-fried. They are a staple of Sicilian cuisine. The most common arancini fillings are al ragù or al sugo, i.e. filled with ragù (meat or mince, slow-cooked at low temperature with tomato sauce and spices), mozzarella or caciocavallo cheese, and often peas; and al burro or ô burru (lit. 'with butter'), i.e. filled with prosciutto and mozzarella or béchamel sauce.
