Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender, about 3 minutes. Add rice and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Slowly pour in white wine. Cook, stirring frequently, until wine is absorbed.
• Add 1/2 cup broth, stirring frequently, until broth is absorbed. Working in batches, continue adding 1/2 cup broth at a time, stirring until all broth is absorbed. When done, rice should be tender and creamy. (Step 2 should take 20 to 25 minutes total.)
• Stir Parmesan cheese, pesto, 1/4 cup parsley, and 1 tablespoon vinegar into the risotto. Keep warm.
• Combine beans, tomatoes, and salt in a small saucepan. Cook, covered, over medium heat, until warmed through, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a 10-inch skillet, bring 4 cups water and the remaining vinegar to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer (bubbles should begin to break the surface of the water). Break an egg into a custard cup. Hold the lip of the cup close to water and slip egg into water. Repeat with remaining eggs. Simmer, uncovered, 3 to 5 minutes or until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken but are not hard. Use a slotted spoon to remove from skillet.

• Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and pancetta to a skillet; cook over medium heat until pancetta is crisp.

• Poach the eggs: use your preferred method or as follows-bring enough water to cover whole (unshelled) eggs to boil in a small saucepan; gently lower eggs into boiling water.
• Let them boil only for 30 seconds, then carefully remove them (this preliminary cooking serves to set the whites a bit and makes the eggs much easier to handle).
• Bring the 5 cups water and cider vinegar to a simmer in a deep skillet.
• Gently crack each egg and open it directly over the simmering water.
• Let the egg gently slide into the water; spoon simmering water over the eggs if they are not completely submerged.

• Carefully place the drained eggs on the dressed frisées.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper; scatter pancetta over the eggs.
