4. Roll in egg wash

7. Shallow fry in canola oil until golden brown.
8. Drain on absorbant paper.

Making the balls
Tip
This is one of the best ways you can use any left over Thermomix risotto. It doesnt matter what flavour risotto you have, just add your favourite cheese...or whats in the fridge..into the middle and you are set!
1. You can add to your risotto eg left over BBQ chicken.
2. You can add parmesan cheese or herbs to your crumbs for extra flavour.
3. As far as quantity goes...it really depends how much you have left over and how big you make the balls. 1 quantity of EDC risotto will make about 40 tbsp size balls.
The arancini balls in the picture were made with EDC mushroom risotto with haloumi cheese in the middle and a panko crumb. They were YUMMM.

Very easy to make and follow.
I used leftover seafood rissotto and they turned out nice served with a light salad.
I used some left over risotto, added some left over savoury beef, followed the recipe to a T.
I think we enjoyed them even more than the risotto. I cooked them 10 minutes in my air fryer.
Used leftover brown rice risotto from the RC and they turned out perfectly! Great recipe!
Thai risotto with mozzaralla and airfried...delish!!!
Are they ok to leave in the fridge over night and then cook the next day?
Yum....but quite time consuming!
Very easy to make and a good idea so as to not waste leftover risotto. I used leftover mushroom risotto from the basic cook book and also put parmesan in the breadcrumbs. Definitely will put that in again, gave the coating an extra boost of flavour. Thanks for your recipe!
Delicious and easy! Thanks for the recipe.
A great way to use up left over risotto! Don't make the balls too big, otherwise the cheese won't melt by the time the outside is brown!
