Begin by preparing the filling: Sauté onion and garlic in hot olive oil until onions are translucent. Stir in the ground beef, continue cooking until beef is well browned, and then stir in the wine. Cook till wine is evaporated. Dilute the tomato paste in a ladle of warm water and stir it into the beef mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer over low heat for a couple of hours, adding more warm water or broth as necessary to keep it from drying out. While the meat's cooking, simmer the peas until they're tender. Then remove, drain, and let them cool. Dice the mozzarella into half-inch cubes and combine it with the cool peas. Another thing to do while the meat is cooking is prepare the rice: boil it in abundant, lightly salted water, and while it's cooking lightly beat two of the eggs. When the rice is done drain it. Transfer it into a bowl, let it cool slightly, and stir in the beaten eggs and grated cheese. Let it finish cooling. Lightly beat the remaining eggs and season them with salt and pepper. Preheat your oven to 350 Next, make the first arancino by taking a heaping tablespoon of rice mixture into the palm of your hand and make an indentation in the center. Fill indentation with ground beef mixtur, a few peas and mozzarella cubes. Carefully wrap the rice around the filling so that the filling ends up in the center of the rice ball. Pack the rice ball fairly tightly with your hands. Roll the arancino in flour, dredge it in the beaten egg, roll it well in the breadcrumbs, and fry it in abundant hot oil. While it's cooking begin with the next, and when the one that's frying has become a golden brown drain it on absorbent paper. When you have finished frying all your arancini, heat them through in the oven for five minutes, decorate them with the orange leaves if you choose to, and serve them piping hot. -In deserts, panna cotta add....powdered sugar almost to a boil in a heavy saucepan.
