1 . Put the rice, water and salt into a medium saucepan . Bring to a boil,
stirring occasionally . Once rice comes to a boil, cover and reduce
heat to a simmer until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is
tender (follow package instructions for timing) . Allow to fully cool .
2 . In a small bowl, combine the egg, Pecorino, ricotta, parsley and
pepper . While mixing and fluffing the rice with a spoon, mix in the
egg and cheese mixture . Spread the rice onto a parchment paper-
lined baking sheet . Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes .
3 . Once the rice has chilled, use slightly wet hands and scoop 3 table-
spoons of rice into a ball . Repeat with remaining rice . Stuff each ball
with one piece of the mozzarella and re-form if necessary .
4 . Place the AirFryer Basket onto the Baking Pan and coat with
nonstick spray .
5 . Put the breadcrumbs into a small bowl . Gently toss each rice ball
into the breadcrumbs and transfer to the basket . Spray or brush
liberally and evenly with oil .
6 . Place assembled basket/pan into oven in the upper rack position .
Set to AirFry at 350ºF . Cook rice balls until evenly golden, about
15 to 20 minutes .
7 . Serve immediately, with marinara sauce on the side .
