Suppli alla Romana Recipe from Mamma Assunta 89 years old Roma - Italy

 If are you coming to Rome don't miss Suppli alla romana  or Suppli al telefono .


  The ingredients are rice, tomato sauce, onion, sweetbreads, chicken or you want the beef heart, chicken liver, ground beef, parmesan and mozzarella cheese If you also want the dried porcini mushrooms, soaked in water and chopped to put together the chopped onion, I prefer without. Also meat broth, bread crumbs, water butter, flour and white wine.

Ladies and gentlemen, I ask you to bow down solemnly in front of that, I dare say without feeling inadequate, is a Roman recipe that we Romans we have to be proud of: the SUPPLI

 
 Ingredients:

200 grams of rice (preferably superfine for risotto)
  150 grams of tomato sauce
  80 grams of ground beef
  1/2 glass of wine
butter
chicken liver 
porcini mushroom
  salt
  black pepper
  1 mozzarella
  Bread crumbs
  Oil for frying
  vegetable stock / hot water
  2 eggs
1 garlic clove



1. Prepare the sauce made with ground beef, chicken liver , mushroom and garlic, red wine and tomato sauce. add olive oil and cook till  light brown.
Prepare the risotto cooking the rice directly into the sauce made before and diluted with vegetable broth or hot water. Leave to withdraw all the cooking liquid (or drain it if it can not retire for good) before transferring the rice in a large bowl and let it cool down for good after having adjusted with salt and black pepper (for this should be prepared in advance).
2. Beat eggs and cut the mozzarella into thin strips or cubes.
3. Take a handful of rice with greasy hands and lay in the middle a little bit of mozzarella closing in such a way as to give an oval shape to the rice balls.
4. Switch each supplì first then egg in breadcrumbs being careful not to break.
5. Heat the oil well and cook the rice balls until they are golden enough externally. Drain and serve hot.

Preparation time: about 1 hour
