Cheesy Broccoli Arancini Recipes

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, heat broth to simmering.
• In 12-inch skillet, heat 1/4 cup oil. Cook onion and a pinch of salt in oil 5 to 7 minutes or until onion is soft and translucent. Add rice and cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add wine; cook and stir until absorbed into rice. Add broth, 1 cup at a time, and stir constantly, until absorbed into rice. Add cheese; cook until melted. Add pepper and more salt to taste.
• Cool in refrigerator at least 2 hours but no longer than 12 hours.
• Heat 3 inches of oil in large pot over medium heat to 360°F.
• While oil is heating, place 1 1/2 cups of the bread crumbs in a bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Microwave broccoli 5 minutes.
• Mix egg and remaining 1 cup bread crumbs into rice mixture. Scoop into 3-inch balls, pressing small scoop of broccoli into center of each. Coat balls in bread crumbs, and fry in batches 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown.
• Transfer to paper towels to drain. Cool slightly, and serve.

Steps:

• Place broccoli in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain and transfer to a microwave safe casserole dish.
• Pour melted butter over broccoli (use more or less, to taste) and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle cheese over the top and microwave, on high, for 1 minute, or until cheese is melted.
