Traditional Sicilian Family Recipe – Nonna’s Secret Brought to Life

"This is one of the nicest memories growing up, my next-door neighbours were a Sicilian family and, as every Sicilian, they loved cooking and eating food. I remember their Nonna teaching me how to make their secret arancini recipe — the flavour was unbelievable! I helped her so many times in exchange for one … or more of those satisfying arancini, and since then I’ve continued making her recipe." - Davide

Davide’s Sicilian arancini carry the soul of that tradition. Each one has a perfectly golden, crunchy shell that gives way to a heart of slow-cooked meat ragout, rich with beef, pork, soffritto, and wine, all wrapped around molten mozzarella that creates those irresistible cheese pulls. This is comfort food rooted in generations of Sicilian home cooking — hearty, deeply satisfying, and made with care.

The attention to detail is what makes these special. The ragout takes hours to prepare, the rice is cooked to just the right texture, and every ball is hand-rolled before being coated in crisp breadcrumbs. They’re generous, filling, and everything you’d expect from authentic Sicilian street food brought to your table.
