DIRECTION

Step: 1

Cook rice according to package directions. Allow to cool until comfortable to handle.

Step: 2

Stir in one egg, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.

Step: 3

Place flour in a small bowl. Beat 2 eggs in a second bowl. Place bread crumbs in a third bowl.

Step: 4

Divide rice mixture into 24 equal portions about the size of a golf ball. Roll each portion into a ball. Roll rice ball in flour. Place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. (Mix will be sticky.)

Step: 5

Dip each rice ball into the egg wash. Dredge in bread crumbs, and place rice balls back on baking sheet. Refrigerate 15 minutes.

Give each rice ball another quick roll in your hands to tighten up and smooth out the surface.
