Arancini Siciliano | Sicilian Arancini

One of the most extraordinary things about cooking is having leftovers to make other delicious dishes, such as taking leftover risotto to make Arancini, a breaded, fried to golden perfection rice croquette. This savory popular Sicilian street food makes an excellent pre-dinner starter or on-the-go snack. Its name, like its size, comes from the translation of ‘small oranges.’ Each crispy, cheese-filled bite is greeted with an explosion of meat ragu’ and peas. Pair these heavenly rice balls with a nice glass of Devay, a  savory Sangiovese+Montepulciano blend from Lumavite.

 

To make this vegan-friendly, substitute the eggs with an egg replacement. Use vegan ground meat, like Beyond Meat or Impossible Meat. Substitute the Parmesan cheese with vegan cheese. I use Violife Plant-Based Parmesan cheese.
