AVOCADO ARANCINI WITH CREAMY AVOCADO RANCH DIP
My Mother was Italian and she prepared homemade arancini (which in Italian means fried rice balls) for special occasions and parties. Hers were very traditional Sicilian and delicious. I prepare so many of my Mother's original recipes today, but I also enjoy changing things up by trying non-traditional ingredients and spices or maybe changing the cooking method. I think that combining flavors from different cultures can be so much fun. It really opens your eyes to the limitless boundaries of cooking. For this recipe, the key to success is using a cooking thermometer to ensure that your oil remains at the proper temperature so that the arancini brown evenly and the cheese melts without burning them on the outside. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Cook the rice according to the package directions. Spread the cooked rice out on a cookie sheet and let cool for 10 minutes, then place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes until cold.
- While the rice chills, cook the bacon until crisp, then drain well on paper towels. Crumble the bacon and set aside until ready to use.
- Cut the 2 Mexican avocados in half and remove the pits. Scrape the flesh from 3 of the 4 halves into a medium mixing bowl. Scrape the 4th avocado half into a separate small bowl. Add 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice to each bowl and mash the contents of both bowls well with a fork. Add the sour cream and ranch dressing mix to the small bowl and whisk together until you have a smooth, creamy consistency, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use. To the medium mixing bowl, add the oregano, red pepper flakes, sun-dried tomatoes, shredded mozzarella, cooked bacon, salt and pepper and mix well. Stir in the cooked, chilled rice and mix well again.
- Beat the two eggs in a small shallow bowl. Pour the Italian bread crumbs into a small shallow dish.
- Pour enough canola oil into a medium frying pan to reach a depth of 3/4 inch. Heat the oil until it reaches a temperature of 350 degrees. Use a teaspoon to scoop up the rice mixture and roll it into 1-inch diameter balls. Place each rice ball into the egg, then into the bread crumbs to coat. Fry the arancini in small batches in the hot oil for 3 minutes, until golden brown on all sides. Transfer the cooked arancini to a paper towel lined platter to drain. Serve them warm with the cool avocado ranch dip.

Tips:
- Use ripe avocados: Make sure the avocados are ripe but not overripe. Ripe avocados will be slightly soft to the touch and have a deep, dark green color.
- Cook the arborio rice properly: Arborio rice is a short-grain rice that is used to make risotto. It is important to cook the rice slowly and stir it frequently to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, and thyme, add a lot of flavor to the arancini. Use fresh herbs whenever possible.
- Don't overfill the arancini: When you are filling the arancini, don't overfill them. This will make them difficult to fry and they may fall apart.
- Fry the arancini until they are golden brown: Fry the arancini in hot oil until they are golden brown. This will help to create a crispy outer shell.
- Serve the arancini with a dipping sauce: Arancini are traditionally served with a dipping sauce, such as marinara sauce or pesto. You can also serve them with a creamy avocado ranch dip.
Conclusion:
Avocado arancini are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks. The creamy avocado ranch dip is the perfect complement to the crispy arancini. These arancini are a great way to use up leftover rice. They are also a good source of healthy fats, thanks to the avocados. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
