Ingredients
- 200g Arborio rice
- 500g mixed mushrooms
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 liter vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 50g grated Parmesan cheese
Directions
- Prepare the mushrooms: Clean the mushrooms using a damp cloth or paper towel to remove any dirt. Cut them into small pieces with a child-safe knife. Set aside.
- Chop the onion and garlic: Peel and dice the onion and garlic. You can ask your little helpers to do this with a plastic knife.
- Cook the onion and garlic: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, and cook until they become translucent.
- Add the rice: Add the Arborio rice to the pot and stir well to coat the rice with the onion and garlic mixture.
- Add the mushrooms: Add the chopped mushrooms to the pot and stir to combine with the rice.
- Cook the risotto: Gradually add the vegetable broth to the pot, stirring constantly. Allow the rice to absorb the broth before adding more. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is creamy and cooked through.
- Finish with Parmesan: Once the risotto is cooked, remove it from the heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese.
- Serve: Divide the risotto ai funghi porcini among plates and enjoy with your family!
