Ingredients:
6 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup portobello mushrooms, sliced
1 cup crimini mushrooms, sliced
1 cup shitake mushrooms, sliced
1 cup button mushrooms, sliced
4 shallots, diced
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated
olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Prepare the mushrooms. Saute the mushrooms all together in a pan with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes on medium heat until the mushrooms are soft. Set aside in a bowl.
2. Warm the chicken broth in a saucepan over medium/low heat. Keep on the heat throughout the entire cooking process.
3. In a large pot, saute the shallots with olive oil on medium heat until they become clear. Add the rice to the shallots, stirring to coat the rice with oil. When the rice starts to turn pale, add the wine and stir constantly until the wine is fully absorbed.
4. Add a ladle-full of the broth to the rice and stir until the broth is absorbed. Continue adding a ladle-full of broth to the rice and stirring all the time until the liquid is absorbed. Continue this process on medium heat until the rice becomes creamy, about 25 minutes.
5. Remove the rice from the heat and stir in the parmesan cheese and mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper if necessary. Enjoy!
