Madrid's Majestic Mushroom Risotto

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb mixed mushrooms (such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster), sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until softened.
  2. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their liquid and become golden brown.
  3. Stir in the Arborio rice and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the grains are coated with oil and slightly translucent.
  4. Pour in the white wine and cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid is absorbed.
  5. Gradually add the vegetable broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more.
  6. Continue this process until the rice is creamy and tender, but still slightly firm to the bite (al dente).
  7. Stir in the butter, Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Remove from heat and let the risotto rest for a few minutes before serving.
