Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup arborio rice
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup fresh mushrooms e.g., cremini or shiitake
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped

Method
 

  1. Prepare the broth in a saucepan and keep it warm over low heat.
  2. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat and add chopped onion and garlic.
  3. Add the mushrooms and sauté them until they're soft and golden, around 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the arborio rice and cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly toasted.
  5. Pour in the white wine, cooking until it has mostly evaporated.
  6. Begin adding the warm broth, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously until absorbed.
  7. Continue adding broth until the rice is tender yet al dente, about 18-20 minutes.
  8. Remove from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to taste.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving hot.

Notes

For maximum creaminess, serve immediately. Leftovers can be reheated with a splash of broth to restore the texture.
