When the rice is cold put a soupspoon of rice in your left hand, add a teaspoon or the meat mixture, and complete the ball with another spoonful of rice, forming a ball about the size of a small orange. When all the balls are formed roll them in flour, then dip them in the beaten egg, followed by the breadcrumbs, and fry them in boiling oil.There should be enough oil to completely cover the "little oranges". As soon as they are golden remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to absorb the extra oil. Keep them warm in the oven until ready to serve.
