KOOBI ANGWA MO - ARANCINI BALLS RECIPE ( Rice and Cheese balls)

Arancini Balls are Sicillian balls of Rice that are usually filled with Meat sauce, Mozzarella, coated in breadcrumbs and deep fried.  

'Angwa Mo', a popular Ghanaian Rice dish which translates to 'Oiled Rice', is usually made with salted Beef and served with Sardines and an Omelette. 

This recipe has fused two different cultures together without loosing the varied authentic flavours both dishes have.

I made the classic Ghanaian Angwa Mo with salted Fish instead of salted Beef on this occasion.

KOOBI ANGWA MO

I’ve used the left over  'Koobi Angwa Mo' which includes the crunchy bottom bits known as 'Kanzo' for this recipe.

Watch how I managed to use Thai Hom Mali Rice, which has less starch content to the classic Risotto rice which Arancini is made from. 

How did I manage to get the mixture in a pliable way to form a ball? 

First let’s tackle the ingredients you need for this recipe.

INGREDIENTS 

100g of Koobi Angwa Mo rice or any leftover rice

100g of grated Mozzarella 

3 Eggs

40g of Panko Breadcrumbs 

1 tablespoonful of Corn starch

40g of chopped Spring Onions

3 or more chopped Green Chillies (optional)
Salt to taste

300ml of your preferred oil for deep frying

The inclusion of ‘One Mouth Thousand’ (fried baby fish in Coconut oil) a delicacy amongst the Ewe tribe of Ghana gives this stew an incredible flavour. In the absence of ‘One Mouth Thousand’ you can use salted Anchovies. If you’re using the salted Anchovies ensure you add it before the including the Tomatoe purée for extra flavour.
