The star ingredient of this year has to be mushroom. Hands down their versatility is what gets to us, by playing a key role in some of our favorite dishes.

Before we begin, it’s important to know that it takes patience to make mushroom risotto, but the joy of the first bite will make it all worth it. This creamy Italian rice dish is made with chicken broth and mushrooms. It takes about 25-30 minutes to prepare this dish. To begin, you have to first sauté the mushrooms in a pan. The key to note here is to let mushrooms cook in their own juices before adding oil or butter. Moving forward, add the risotto rice and white wine and let it boil for around 3 to 4 minutes. When the liquid is reduced by half, add 1/2 cup of stock.

Make sure to keep stirring here so that the rice doesn’t stick to the edges of the pan. When you stir the sloughs off the starch from the rice, it makes the sauce creamy, and trust us that’s how you want this to turn out. Before adding another 1/2 cup of stock make sure the last batch is absorbed. The process will have to continue till the rice is just cooked and slightly chewy. We’re almost there, just add parmesan cheese, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Lastly, garnish with chopped fresh parsley or chives, and voila!
