@tuduu

Rustic arancini are a tasty and authentic variant of Sicilian arancini. These delicious rice balls are stuffed with a mix of boiled rice, peas, onion, tomato sauce, grated Parmesan cheese, and chicken livers. They are then dipped in egg, breaded with breadcrumbs, and fried until perfectly crispy golden. The crunchy exterior and soft, flavorful interior make rustic arancini an irresistible appetizer.
