How To Make italian rice balls w/ marinara sauce
-
Step 1Cook the rice according to directions,whisk the eggs and keep them to the side. When the rice is boiling,reserve about 1/4 cup of the hot liquid to use with two of the eggs so they do not scramble on you in the recipe for later.

Step 2When the rice is finished cooking,add in the egg and water mixture along with the spices,cheese and herbs,mix well and refrigerate for 20 minutes.Hint:If the mixture is too wet,add some bread crumb to it to tighten it up.
-
