Arancini (UK: /ˌærənˈtʃiːni/, US: /ˌɑːr-/,[1][2]Italian:[aranˈtʃiːni]; Sicilian:[aɾanˈtʃiːnɪ,-ˈdʒiː-]; sg.: arancino), also known as arancine (sg.: arancina), are Italian rice balls that are stuffed, coated with breadcrumbs and deep-fried. They are a staple of Sicilian cuisine. The most common arancini fillings are al ragù or al sugo, filled with ragù (meat or mince, slow-cooked at low temperature with tomato sauce and spices), mozzarella or caciocavallo cheese, and often peas, and al burro or ô burru, filled with ham and mozzarella or béchamel sauce.
A number of regional variants exist which differ in their fillings and shape. Arancini al ragù produced in eastern Sicily, particularly in cities such as Catania and Messina, have a conical shape inspired by the volcano Etna.[3]
