Ingredients
- 125g mushrooms
- 250g Arborio rice
- 1 onion
- 50g butter
- 800ml vegetable stock
- 50g Parmesan cheese, grated
Directions
- First, let’s chop up the onions into small, finely diced pieces so they’ll cook quickly. (This could be *our secret ingredient!)*
- Place a large heavy based pan on medium heat and add the butter.
- When the butter is melted, add the diced onions. Cook the onions until they become soft and slightly translucent.
- Now we’ll add the Arborio rice. Stir the rice for a few minutes until it becomes slightly toasted.
- Next, add the mushrooms into the pan and stir until the mushrooms are cooked.
- Pour in the vegetable stock and stir it in well. Make sure the liquid is fully incorporated before you bring the pan to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer the risotto for 25-30 minutes.
- Stir the risotto occasionally to ensure that it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.
- Once the risotto is cooked, turn off the heat and fold in the grated Parmesan cheese.
- Give the risotto a good stir and serve while still hot. Enjoy!
