Ingredients
Serving
vegetable broth ( or chicken broth )
3 , 1/2 cup
mushrooms ( sliced or diced )
225 g
leek ( white part only, sliced )
1 leek
minced garlic
2 cloves
olive oil
3 tablespoon
arborio rice
1 cup
white wine ( 1/4 cup )
70 g
salt
1/2 tsp
sundried tomato
1/4 cup
shredded parmesan cheese ( optional )
2 tbsp
basil ( for garnish )
1 tbsp, chopped
Instructions
Step 1
In a saucepan, heat broth and keep at a simmer.
Step 2
In a separate wide bottom saucepan or skillet, add olive oil, mushrooms, leek, and garlic then sauté about five minutes until mushrooms have given up most of their moisture and leek is beginning to soften.
Step 3
Add rice and stir until it's coated with the oil.
Step 4
Pour in white wine and let that absorb into the rice. Be careful not to let the pan go dry.
Step 5
Add a couple of ladles of hot broth to the rice and stir occasionally. To check if it's time to add more broth, drag your stirring spoon through the rice. If the space left by the spoon does not immediately fill in with the liquid, add another ladle of broth. Continue this until all the broth is added.
Step 6
After all of the broth is added, stir in the salt and sundried tomatoes.
Step 7
Cook mixture until it resembles loose oatmeal. Rice should still be al dente but look creamy.
Step 8
Remove from heat and add parmesan if using. The risotto will continue to absorb liquid as it cools to get to the perfect creamy consistency.
Step 9
Top with chopped basil and serve immediately.
