Rice Balls

Ingredients:
2 cups of rice--- cook this in 4 cups of water with 3 Chicken Bullion cubes. (You can cook rice in advance ---since it works better when rice is cold.) 1 bunch of fresh parsley (equals ¾ cup) minced into pieces ¾ cup of grating cheese ;(parmesan or Romano) 1 cup of shredded Mozzarella 2 eggs Salt and Pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients together. Form into balls about the size of a golf ball. Roll in Italian Bread crumbs to lightly coat them. Then refrigerate before frying them. (This is a tip from Aunt Marie) Fry in vegetable oil until lightly brown. Keep warm in low temp oven. Enjoy them!!! Will make about 20 Rice Balls. You may also use this with half rice and half left over mashed potatoes- Which is how Aunt Marie or Aunt Dolly would make them.
