Method
1
Put the stock and saffron in a medium saucepan and bring to the boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, hold at a gentle simmer.
2
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cook stirring, for 5 minutes or until soft and translucent. Stir in the rice and cook, for 2 minutes or until the grains look glassy. Add 1/2 cup of stock to the risotto, stir until liquid is absorbed. Continue this process, adding 1/2 cup stock and stirring until it has absorbed before adding the next. This will take 20-25 minutes. The rice should be tender yet firm to bite. Remove from heat. Stir in parmesan. Refrigerate until cold.
3
Once cold, stir in the prawns, chives and mozzarella and season. Roll 1 tablespoonful of risotto mixture into a ball. Repeat with remaining mixture. Coat risotto balls, one at a time in flour, egg and breadcrumbs. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour until firm.
4
Preheat oven 160°C fan forced. Deep fry the arancini 6-8 at a time until golden, transfer to a wire rack, keep warm on the rack in the oven while cooking the remaining arancini. Combine the lemon chilli aioli ingredients together and serve.
