Crispy Arancini Balls with Curry Sauce

2 servings

100 minutes

Arancini are a traditional dish of Sicilian cuisine, resembling miniature crispy rice balls with aromatic filling. In this recipe, the classic Italian dish takes on Eastern notes thanks to a rich curry sauce. The crispy golden crust hides tender pumpkin risotto infused with creamy flavor. The sauce made with coconut milk, star anise, and cilantro adds a subtle exotic aroma and mild spiciness to the dish. Arancini are perfect for cozy evenings with friends or as an original appetizer for celebrations. Serving them on warm curry sauce makes them even more appetizing, while drops of olive oil and a pinch of black pepper complete the picture of gastronomic pleasure.
