Steps to make Arancini:

1. For the breadcrumbs, Cut the focaccia into 2-inch pieces and place in a blender. Pulse the bread into bread crumbs. Add salt and pepper to taste. Place in a plate and set aside.
2. For the risotto, Heat butter and olive oil in a deep pan. When melted add the shallot and garlic. Cook slowly over low heat until they turn opaque. Be careful not to let them burn.
3. Add the rice and stir, combining the rice with the mixture. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly until the grains of rice has an opaque colouring around the edges.
4. Add the wine stirring briskly until the liquid evaporates.
5. Add a ladle of stock, cook on low heat, until the liquid evaporates.
6. Add a ladle of stock every few mins, be careful not to let the liquid evaporate too much. The rice will become creamy. Continue to add the stock a ladle at a time until the rice is al dente and the mixture is creamy.
7. Stir in the cheeses until melted and add salt and pepper to taste.
8. Pour risotto into a plate and leave to cool.
9. To prepare the arancini balls, in a bowl whisk the egg whites until it turns to white foam. Place about a tablespoon of risotto in your hands and roll into a ball about 2 inches in diameter.
10. Take each ball and dredge in flour first, then in egg white, then finally in the breadcrumbs. Place the balls on a plate. When all balls are dredged, cover them in cling film and leave in the fridge for a minimum of one hour to dry the balls ready for frying later.
11. Cooking the Arancini, Heat a deep pan with 2 inches of oil. Add a droplet of egg white to check the temperature of the oil. Egg white should sizzle and float to the top.
12. When at the right temperature, add the balls one at a time. Watch to make sure that the oil is not too hot. Fry the balls, moving them around the pan until they are a deep golden brown colour. Remove balls when ready and place them on kitchen roll or in deep fryer basket to drain the excess oil. Serve hot or cold.

Finish by coating completely in breadcrumbs. There is no one true arancini recipe. The only ingredient that remains constant is the Arborio rice. (Arancini and Supplì) Arancini are made by forming plain risotto into either conical, or round shapes, with mozzarella in the center. To add even more confusion, these supplì are often called "Arancini di riso al telefono" because when you break and pull them apart, the mozzarella forms a long string, like a telephone line. The oil can be reused twice because the Arancini Balls aren't heavily seasoned with spices, as opposed to heavily seasoned food like Southern Fried Chicken which taints the oil with flavour.
