Recipe / That’s Amore Cheese

Makes: 12

V

Ingredients

Method

  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 250g passata sauce
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 700mL vegetable stock
  • 200g risotto rice
  • 2tbsp That’s Amore Grated Parmesan
  • 2 eggs
  • 100g breadcrumbs
  • 125g That’s Amore Fior di Latte
  • Canola or olive oil, to deep fry
  1. In a saucepan sauté garlic in olive oil until soft. Add the passata, salt to taste, and leave it to simmer for 15 mins. In the meantime, bring vegetable stock to a boil in a separate saucepan.
  2. When the sauce is ready, add the rice and cook until it has absorbed most of the passata. Then add a couple of splashes of stock and again wait for the rice to absorb the liquid. Repeat the process, adding a small amount at a time, until the rice is almost ready but a little undercooked. Remove from the heat.
  3. Season to taste, stir in parmesan and spread over a tray to cool and set.
  4. Then make the supplì. Once your rice has cooled off, grab two bowls, prepare a bowl of whisked eggs and a bowl of breadcrumbs.
  5. Slice a That’s Amore Fior di Latte into 12 even strips of mozzarella. These strips will be the cheese used in the centre of your supplì.
  6. Divide the rice into 12 even portions as well. Grab each portion of rice and press it into your hand so that you get a nice concave bowl shape in your hand. Add mozzarella in the middle and fold the rice around so you have a neat cylinder. Repeat for remaining portions of rice.
  7. Now one by one dip the supplì in the egg followed by the breadcrumbs, roll it around a little to make sure you get even breadcrumbs all around it.
  8. You can now start the frying process. Fill a deep pan with canola or olive oil and bring it to 180°C. Add in two supplì at a time and deep fry until golden.
  9. Serve hot to ensure a nice oozy cheesy centre, enjoy!
