🧂 Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 2 cups cooked white rice (best if it’s slightly sticky or day-old)
- 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup diced pepperoni
- 1 egg (to bind the mixture)
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning or oregano (optional)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (plus more for coating)
- Oil for frying (vegetable or canola works great)
👩🍳 How to Make Rice Balls with Cheese & Pepperoni
✅ Step 1: Mix the Rice Filling
In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, mozzarella, parmesan, diced pepperoni, seasonings, and egg. Stir everything together until it becomes a sticky, cohesive mixture.
💡 Tip: If the mixture feels too loose, add a tablespoon or two of breadcrumbs until it holds its shape.
✅ Step 2: Shape the Balls
Scoop out a spoonful of the rice mixture and roll it into a ball with your hands (about the size of a golf ball). For an extra cheesy center, push a cube of mozzarella into the middle and seal the rice around it.
