Suppli (fried rice balls)

To make 12 suppli, mix 200 g of boiled rice with some savoury sauce (the recipe is that of the Roman „fettuccine”), lots of Parmesan cheese and a whole egg. Now make the suppli into egg- shaped balls using the palm in your hand, introducing in the centre bits of mozzarella cheese as well as stuffing which you may prepare according to your taste, with some minced meat or, better, a few pieces of chicken livers. Now dip each suppli in flour, then in beaten egg, coat bread- crumbs, and fry in hot oil.
