Method
Preparation
Roast the Mushrooms
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Clean the crimini, portobello, and shiitake mushrooms, and slice them into even pieces. Spread them on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes until they are browned and tender.
Cooking the Risotto
Sauté Aromatics
In a large skillet or saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and garlic, and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they become fragrant and translucent.
Toast the Rice
Add the Arborio rice to the skillet with the sautéed aromatics. Stir for about 1-2 minutes until the rice is slightly toasted and coated with the oil.
Add Broth Gradually
Pour in 1 cup of vegetable broth, stirring continuously until the liquid is mostly absorbed. Repeat this process, adding broth one cup at a time, stirring frequently, until the rice is creamy and al dente (about 18-20 minutes).
Finishing the Dish
Combine Ingredients
Once the risotto is cooked, remove it from heat and gently fold in the roasted mushrooms, truffle oil, and grated Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve
Plate the risotto and garnish with fresh parsley. Drizzle with additional truffle oil if desired, and serve immediately.
