Instructions

Prep

1 Prep

  • Boil the measured water.
  • Add the mushroom stock cube and boiled water to a jug and set aside.
  • This is the mushroom stock.
  • Peel and finely chop the onion.
  • Peel and mince the garlic.
  • Clean the mushrooms with a cloth, knife or brush (do not wash them with water) and roughly chop or tear the mushrooms.
Start risotto

2 Start risotto

  • Heat a large pot or pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Fry the mushrooms for 5-6 min or until browned.
  • Once softened, add the onion and butter and cook for 3 min further.
  • Add the garlic and Arborio rice and cook for 1 min further, stirring to coat the grains in the oil.
Simmer

3 Simmer

  • Reduce the heat to medium and add 1/3 of the mushroom stock.
  • Stir continuously until it has absorbed.
  • Continue to add the stock, a little at a time for 20 min or until all the stock is absorbed and the rice is cooked 'al dente' – this is your risotto.
Tip! The amount of stock you will require, depends on the size of your pan and the heat over which you simmer the risotto. Make sure to adjust the amount accordingly.
Finish risotto

4 Finish risotto

  • Meanwhile, finely chop the parsley leaves.
  • Once the risotto is cooked remove from the heat and add the grated Parmesan, half of the chopped parsley (reserve the rest for garnish) and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste.
  • Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
Serve

5 Serve

  • Serve the Classic Mushroom Risotto, garnished with the remaining fresh parsley.
