Mushroom and Mozzarella Arancini

Ingredients

  • 3 cups chilled mushroom risotto
  • 12 (1/2-inch) cubes mozzarella (about 1 oz total)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup fine dry bread crumbs (not seasoned)
  • About 8 cups vegetable oil for frying
  • Special equipment: a deep-fat thermometer

Instructions

  1. Roll chilled risotto into 12 (1 1/2-inch) balls using wet hands. Poke a small hole in center of each ball and insert a cube of cheese, then re-form into a ball.
  2. Put flour, eggs, and bread crumbs in 3 separate bowls. Dredge 1 risotto ball in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in egg, letting excess drip off, then dredge in bread crumbs and transfer to a sheet of wax paper. Repeat with remaining balls.
  3. Heat 1 1/2 to 2 inches oil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot until thermometer registers 360 °F. Working in batches of 4, lower rice balls into oil with a slotted spoon and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Return oil to 360 °F between batches. 3Let balls stand 2 minutes (for cheese to melt).
