Risotto:
Heat the broth in a medium saucepan and set aside. In a medium saucepan, bring the broth to a simmer. In a medium saucepan, sauté onions in olive oil until tender, 5–8 minutes. Add the garlic. Saute one more minute. Add the rice, stirring to let it toast slightly. Add the wine. Stir until liquid is absorbed. Add the diced tomatoes. Then add 1 cup of the vegetable broth and cook until liquid is absorbed. Continue the process with remainder of the broth. Stir in the Parmesan and season with salt and pepper. Let cool completely.
Arancini:
Mix the risotto, eggs, Parmesan, and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs in a mixing bowl. Place the remainder of the breadcrumbs in a shallow dish or plate. Heat oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Form the mixture into 2-inch balls and stuff with one piece mozzarella. Roll in the breadcrumbs, and fry in the oil until golden brown.
Season with salt and serve hot.
