🛒 Ingredients

✓ 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
✓ 1 medium onion, finely diced
✓ 4 cloves garlic, minced
✓ 1.5 cups arborio rice
✓ 4 cups mushroom broth (or low-sodium vegetable broth)
✓ 1 lb mixed mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, oyster), sliced
✓ 0.5 cup dry white wine
✓ 0.5 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
✓ 2 tbsp butter (unsalted)
✓ 1 tsp fresh thyme
✓ 1 tsp truffle oil
✓ Sea salt and black pepper to taste
✓ 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
✓ Pinch of nutmeg

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Sauté mushrooms until golden (6-8 minutes), season with salt and pepper. Remove and set aside, reserving for garnish.

2. Warm broth in a separate saucepan and keep at a gentle simmer throughout cooking.

3. In the risotto pan, heat remaining olive oil over medium heat. Sauté diced onion until translucent (3 minutes), add garlic and cook 1 minute until fragrant.

4. Add arborio rice, stirring constantly for 2 minutes to toast the grains and coat with oil.

5. Deglaze with white wine, stirring until almost completely absorbed (2-3 minutes).

6. Begin adding warm broth one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Wait until each addition is mostly absorbed before adding the next (approximately 18-20 minutes total).

7. After 18 minutes, taste rice for doneness—it should be creamy with a slight bite in the center.

8. Remove from heat, stir in butter, Parmigiano-Reggiano, thyme, and nutmeg until creamy and well combined.

9. Plate risotto, top with reserved mushrooms, drizzle with truffle oil, and garnish with fresh parsley.

10. Serve immediately while hot and creamy.
