  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups freshly made or leftover risotto
  • 4 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut in ½-inch cubes (about 1 cup)
  • ¾ cup fine dry bread crumbs
  • Vegetable oil or shortening for deep frying

    • How To Cook:
    1. Beat the eggs lightly with a fork until they are just combined. Then add the risotto and stir gently but thoroughly, taking care not to mash the rice.

    2. Scoop up 1tablespoon of the mixture in a spoon, place a cube of mozzarella in the middle, and top with another spoonful of risotto.

    3. Press the two spoons together or use your hands to shape a ball. Roll the ballin bread crumbs and place on wax paper.

    4. Similarly, shape other balls. The balls may be fried at once, but they are easier to handle if refrigerated for 30 minutes.

    5. Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer to 375°. Preheat the oven to 250°, line a large baking dish with paper towels and put the dish in the oven.

    6. Fry the balls, 4 or 5 at a time, for about 5 minutes until they are golden brown and the cheese has melted.

    7. Transfer to the baking dish to drain. They may be kept warm in the oven for 10 minutes or so if they must wait.
