Arancini needs no introduction to anyone who has visited Sicily, even just once. If that’s not the case, I apologize and invite you to visit Sicily as soon as you can. But for now, let’s start with the arancini. These are delightful rice balls, traditionally filled with ragù, mozzarella, and peas, then coated in breadcrumbs and deep-fried until golden and crispy. They are a quintessential Sicilian street food, celebrated for their delicious flavours and satisfying texture.
