Mini Arancini are bite-sized, golden-fried rice balls hailing from Italian cuisine, specifically Sicily. Traditionally made with creamy risotto, they feature a savory filling such as mozzarella, meat ragu, or peas, and are coated in breadcrumbs before frying. Their small size makes them perfect for appetizers or snacks. While rich and indulgent, Mini Arancini can be high in calories and fat due to the frying process and cheese fillings. However, they offer a good source of carbohydrates from the rice, along with protein from added ingredients like meat or cheese. When prepared with whole-grain breadcrumbs or baked instead of fried, they can become a healthier option. Pair them with a fresh salad or marinara sauce to balance out the richness while savoring their irresistible taste and crispy texture.
