Any kind of risotto will work when preparing these tasty fried risotto balls stuffed with goat cheese. Use a prepackaged mix, or leftovers. As an appetizer or entree, Goat Cheese Risotto Balls are a favorite. Ingredients:
1 (5.5 ounce) package dry risotto mix |
4 ounces goat cheese |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
Directions:
1. Prepare risotto according to package directions. Chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour, until cooled. 2. Roll risotto into 2 inch mounds. Place a marble-sized chunk of goat cheese on each mound. Press cheese chunks into mounds, then roll mounds around cheese, creating balls. 3. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat the oil and cook the risotto balls, turning occasionally, until evenly golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve hot. |
