Directions
Spanikopita Arancini, I recently had spanikopita at a local restaurant that had light and fluffy rice in it! It was amazing, so I decided to try to recreate it at home I had some leftover rice/spinach/feta mixture, so I made it into balls, coated it with panko, and fried it into arancini I thought it quite tasty, so thought I’d share I didn’t write down amounts as I went, so I am ballparking–if you see an error, please let me know 🙂 Prep time includes chilling time

For This Recipe, You Want the Rice to Be Very Tender, With No Real "bite" to It, but not Mushy Either. to Achieve This, You May Need to Add Additional Stock. When Rice Is Tender, Taste and Add Salt and Pepper to Taste--Keep in Mind You Will Add Feta Later Which Will Add Some Saltiness. Remove from Heat and Stir in Dill and Zest. |
