Suppli

Makes about 15 suppli
25 minutes preparation time
20 minutes cooking time

2 cups bread crumbs
2 eggs, divided
3 cups pre-cooked risotto
salt to taste
1/8 cup mozzarella, cut into 1/4 to 1/2 inch cubes
Vegetable oil for frying

Pour the bread crumbs into a small shallow bowl.  In another bowl, lightly scramble one of the eggs. 

Pour the risotto into a medium bowl, taste it, and add salt if needed.  Add the remaining egg to the bowl, lightly scramble it and then stir it into the rice.

Using a tablespoon, scoop out some rice and shape it into a ball about the size of a golf ball.  Make an indentation in the ball with your thumb and add a piece of mozzarella. Using an additional bit of risotto, cover the mozzarella and roll it into a round shape again. Place the balls on a large plate or cookie sheet.

One at a time, roll each rice ball in the bowl with the egg and then in the bowl with the bread crumbs.  If needed, add more egg or breadcrumbs.  Put the prepared suppli on a cookie sheet.

Heat two inches of oil in a pan until it is hot.  Line a plate with newspaper and top it with a few paper towels.  To test the oil, drop in one grain of rice.  If it sizzles and starts to change color, the oil is ready.  Fry the suppli in the hot oil in batches, turning them until they are evenly golden brown.  It should take 2 to 4 minutes per batch.  Serve immediately.
