Arancini ai Funghi e Taleggio

Ingredients

  • 3 extra-large eggs
  • Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • 3 cups cold risotto ai funghi
  • 3/4 cup shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano, plus extra for serving
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons fine dry breadcrumbs
  • Eight 1/2-inch pieces of Taleggio cheese (1 1/2 to 2 ounces)
  • All-purpose flour, for coating
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • Marinara sauce, for serving

Instructions

Step 1

Beat egg in large bowl. Add pinch of salt for flavor. Stir in leftover risotto until combined. Mix in 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano and 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs. Make sure everything looks well-blended and sticky. You want it to hold together for shaping later.

Step 2

Scoop 8 mounds of risotto mixture, about 1/3 cup each, onto parchment-lined baking sheet. Take one mound and flatten it into a thick patty in your hand. Place a cube of Taleggio cheese in the center of the patty. Carefully fold the risotto around the cheese, shaping it into a ball, ensuring cheese is fully encased. Set the ball back on the baking sheet. Repeat this process for remaining risotto and cheese mounds, making sure each ball is smooth and evenly shaped.

Step 3

Beat remaining 2 eggs in bowl, add pinch salt and few grinds pepper. In shallow bowl, spread flour, season with salt and pepper. In another shallow bowl, mix 1 cup breadcrumbs with 1/4 cup Parmigiano, season with salt and pepper. Take risotto ball, roll in flour until coated. Dip in egg, let excess drip back into bowl. Then roll in breadcrumb mixture until fully covered. Place on baking sheet. Repeat with all risotto balls. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up before frying.

Step 4

Heat oil in large saucepan to 350°F, about 2 inches deep. Use thermometer for accuracy. While oil heats, set up your workspace: place a baking rack over a sheet pan nearby. This will catch excess oil after frying. Once oil is hot, carefully add arancini in batches. Fry for about 4-5 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Use slotted spoon to transfer to rack. Let them drain before serving. Enjoy that crunchy exterior!

Step 5

Heat oil in deep pan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Carefully lower half of arancini into hot oil. Fry for about 4 minutes, turning occasionally, until they develop a golden brown and crisp exterior. Use a spider or slotted spoon to remove arancini from oil and let them drain on a wire rack. Repeat this process with the remaining arancini, ensuring each batch gets that perfect crispy finish. Enjoy watching them transform!

Step 6

Before serving, grab some extra Parmigiano. Lightly sprinkle it over arancini while they’re still hot. This will help the cheese melt slightly, adding more flavor. For dipping, warm up marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until it’s hot, about 5 minutes. Serve arancini with marinara on the side for a delicious dip. Enjoy that crispy, cheesy goodness!

My Tip

Chill risotto balls before frying. Helps them hold shape, prevents melting cheese from leaking. 30 minutes in fridge makes big difference.

Leftovers

Store leftover arancini in shallow airtight container to keep crust crispy. Fridge life 3-4 days. Reheat in oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes until heated through. Avoid microwave; it makes them soggy.

Make It Your Own

Swap Taleggio cheese for Fontina for creamier texture. Use panko breadcrumbs instead of fine dried breadcrumbs for extra crunch.

Chimichurri Grilled Chicken Prep: 15 mins | Cook: 30 mins | Total: 165 mins | Serves: ['4', '4 servings'] | Cuisine: American I still remember the first time I tasted Chimichurri Grilled Chicken at a summer barbecue. The moment I took a bite, I was blown away by the juicy, smoky flavors dancing on my palate, thanks to the zesty chimichurri sauce. The blend of fresh Italian parsley and cilantro in that vibrant green sauce brought an unexpected brightness that perfectly complemented the marinated chicken. What really caught my attention was the Greek yogurt marinade, which made the chicken incredibly tender while adding a subtle tanginess. The garlic, oregano, and just a hint of crushed red pepper in the chimichurri created a flavor profile that was both robust and refreshing. Now, every time I fire up the grill, I can't resist recreating that delicious experience with ...
