Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broth

    In a saucepan, heat the vegetable broth over low heat and keep it warm on the stove. This will help the risotto cook evenly.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are browned and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add the chopped shallots and minced garlic, sautéing until they are translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

Cooking the Risotto

  1. 4

    Toast the Rice

    Add the Arborio rice to the skillet with the shallots and garlic. Stir well and cook for about 2 minutes, allowing the rice to absorb the flavors.

  2. 5

    Add the White Wine

    Pour in the white wine and stir continuously until the wine is mostly absorbed by the rice, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 6

    Incorporate the Broth

    Begin adding the warm vegetable broth one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Wait until the liquid is mostly absorbed before adding the next ladle. Continue this process for about 18-20 minutes until the rice is creamy and al dente.

  4. 7

    Finish the Risotto

    Once the rice is cooked, stir in the sautéed mushrooms, grated Parmesan cheese, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat.

  5. 8

    Add Truffle Oil

    Drizzle the truffle oil over the risotto, mixing gently to combine. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serving

  1. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Spoon the risotto into serving bowls. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and an additional drizzle of truffle oil if desired. Serve immediately.
