Arancini and shrimp meatballs…for super bowl

Aside | Posted on by Brian and Jim

From the silver palate, i am making arancini…and from my brain, shrimp meatballs.

Raw peeled and deveined shrimp in the vitamix

Maybe a little too vitamixed.

I added some gluten free bread crumbs and lemon juice…dill, salt

Meatball shaped, dipped in bread crumbs.  Put it in the freezer …

Brought them back out and up to temp and fried

Finished off in oven

TVP soaked in tomato andWorcestershire and vitamixed 

Draining the rice before mixing in butter and parmesan

Omg…i could stop here…buttery/parmesany rish rice cooling and drying.

Rolled up, filled with a piece ofmozzarella and tvp/tomato mix…then dipped in egg and then gluten free flour

Aperol spritz for jim and campari spritz for me

Pasta with chard and the shrimp meatballs

Egg noodle gluten free pasta was a fail.

Shrimp meatballs were perfect and arent so delivate icant sauce them better

Arancini…smaller next time.  But thatnrice was wonderful, i really did learn a new technique.

The oven crisper pan! Jim was watching HSN and a version of these came on the screen..they looked intersting so i was immediatly on the amazon app pricing and then ordering.


My first use was fries

Here they are getting ready for the over and i cannot find my “after pic” (which may mean that i forgot to take one)….

But I did remember to take a picture of my tofu fries when they were all nice and golden top and bottom

I have already bought a second set as a gift.   And im looking forward to using them fith zuchini and eggplant in the near future.
