Prepare the Risotto
In a saucepan, heat vegetable broth and keep it warm. In another pan, sauté chopped onion and minced garlic until translucent. Add Arborio rice and stir for about 2 minutes. Gradually add the warm broth, one ladle at a time, stirring constantly until the rice is al dente. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Allow to cool.

Form the Arancini
Once the risotto is cooled, take a small amount of rice mixture, flatten it in your palm, place a cube of mozzarella in the center, and mold the rice around it to form a ball. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
