These Italian, stuffed rice balls are coated in breadcrumbs and then fried. They get their name because they look like little oranges which are called ‘arance’ in Italian. And we can guarantee they will be a hit as a bar snack at your next social do.
Because there’s nothing like cheese and wine

Not only will there be wine and cheese, but it’s a fun opportunity to get creative with decor and your hosting skills.
