Easy Rice Croquettes (Arancini)
I was enchanted by the arancini that I ate in Sicily and became a fan of it Mix some salt-boiled green peas or diced cheese into the filling to improve the taste You can use other variations of the rice as well, like ketchup rice or rice simply seasoned with parmesan cheese and salt.
The meat sauce can be cold and just out of the fridge when shaping the rice balls. You can form them into bell-shapes or round balls.
For best results, use fine panko. If you don't have any on hand, ground up what you have with a food processor, etc.
To avoid any mistakes, use lots of oil and deep-fry the croquettes in one go. Recipe by belfy.

Croquettes with Demi-glace Sauce from Leftover Hayashi Rice Croquettes with Demi-glace Sauce from Leftover Hayashi Rice
When you had hayashi rice for dinner on the previous day... sometimes you're left with such small amount of the sauce that's not even enough to serve on rice. It's those times when you feel like shouting, "Who was the last one to eat this!?" These croquettes are perfect for that situation.In Step 2, keep on stirring to prevent the sauce from burning. Try scooping it up with a ladle, and see if it keeps its shape when you drop it into the pan. When adding flour, make sure to add in small batches to avoid any lumps.Please add a small amount of ketchup if it tastes too plain in Step 3. Recipe by Miashanmama -
