Aranchini
Arancini (Italian arancini - "little oranges") is a dish of Sicilian cuisine. It is fried or, in some cases, baked rice balls with a diameter of 8-10 cm, usually stuffed with meat, sometimes together with mozzarella, tomato sauce and green peas. They are usually covered in breadcrumbs before cooking. They can be either round or tapered. The dish got its name due to the rich yellow-orange color after frying in oil, which gives the arancini a resemblance to small oranges.
