Heat the broth and maintain at a simmer. In another saucepan, melt 2 Tbl of the butter. Add the garlic and shallots and saute until limp, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat with the butter. Add the wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until the wine is absorbed.

Add ¼ cup of the broth and cook over medium heat until the broth is absorbed. Continue to cook and add ¼ cup of the broth at a time, stirring occasionally, until all the broth has been absorbed. When the broth is all absorbed, stir in the remaining 2 Tbl butter. Then stir in the tomatoes, cheese, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Serve at once.
