Toasted Pistachio Cheese Arancini

These delicious Italian rice balls are filled with toasted pistachios and cheese, then deep-fried to golden perfection.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Cook the Arborio rice according to the package instructions, then let it cool.
In a large bowl, combine the cooled rice, toasted pistachios, Parmesan cheese, and salt.
Shape the mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball.
Dip each ball into the beaten eggs, then roll in the breadcrumbs to coat.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F.
Fry the arancini in batches until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
Drain on paper towels and serve warm.
