Comment préparer Kittencal's Ground Beef And Feta Rice Balls

In a large skillet, brown 1 lb ground beef with 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic over medium-high heat. Drain any excess grease.
Transfer the cooked beef mixture to a large bowl and let cool slightly.
Stir in 2 cups cooked rice, 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 large egg (beaten), and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
Gently mix to combine. Season with salt to taste (add after cheese). Add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional).
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to firm up.
Shape the mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls (approximately 35).
In a shallow bowl, lightly beat 1 large egg.
In a separate shallow bowl, place 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs.
Dip each rice ball into the beaten egg, then roll in the breadcrumbs, ensuring they are fully coated.
Gently flatten each ball slightly with your palm to ensure even browning.
Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Carefully fry the rice balls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately with your favorite marinara sauce.
