- 3. Increase heat to a medium heat, pour in the wine and let it simmer until absorbed.
- 4. Take a cup at a time from pan 1 and add to pan 2 on medium heat. Let the rice absorb the liquid.

4. Put mozzarella balls into the holes. Reshape into a ball. Continue to do this with all risotto.
5. Now start a production line, roll balls in the flour, then the egg, then coat with breadcrumbs.
