Ingredients
- 2 cups of cooked rice room temp
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/3 cup of sliced parma ham or any soft cured meat you like
- 1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
- one egg
frying station:
- one beaten egg
- seasoned bread crumbs
- canola oil @ 375 degrees for frying
Directions
Combine the cheese, egg, parma ham and chopped basil with the rice and mix until all ingredients have been evenly distributed. Now take a small amount of the rice mixture and form a ball in the your hand a little smaller than a golf ball. Now coat it in the beaten egg, shake off the excess and now dredge in the bread crumbs and let set for a few min. Fry at 275 degrees until golden brown about 2 min or so, drain and serve hot or at room temperature. Option to serve it is with marinara sauce but I think these are good to have hanging around the house of a Sunday room temp for company as they hold up very well.
Enjoy!!
