Preparation

Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.

Cooking

In a saucepan, combine the chopped tomatoes, vegetable stock, and tomato purée.
Heat until almost boiling, then remove from heat.
In a large frying pan, heat olive oil and sauté the onion for 5 mins until softened.
Add minced garlic and cook for 1 min.
Stir in Arborio rice until coated with oil, then pour in white wine.
Stir until wine is nearly absorbed.
Gradually add tomato stock, one ladle at a time, allowing each to be absorbed before adding more.
Cook for 15-20 mins until rice is tender with a slight bite.
Meanwhile, in a small pan, melt butter and add salt and minced garlic, cooking for 30 secs.
Stir in panko breadcrumbs and cook until golden.
Remove from heat and mix in parsley, lemon zest, and Parmesan.
