Crispy risotto balls come filled with a bolognese-style centre and a separate tomato sauce for dipping. In the oven or air fryer, the breadcrumb coating turns firm while the rice stays soft and a little sticky inside, which is the basic arancini contrast. Sainsbury's keeps the filling meat-based rather than cheese-led, so it sits closer to a pasta sauce in snack form than to the mozzarella versions you’ll see elsewhere in the frozen aisle. Serve from frozen and heat until piping hot through.
