About

Just an old family recipe. I have no idea where it came from, before my mother made it. Easy and delicious, this makes 4 hearty porky balls...I double it for my family of 7 (6 of which are eaters + a baby nibbler). 
The name comes from the little pieces of rice sticking out every which way. What? What were YOU thinking?
