Ingredients
- 5 cups mushroom stock
-
3 tablespoons UP Extra Virgin Olive Oil
-
2 shallots, finely chopped
sea salt and freshly ground pepper -
1.5 cups Arborio or Carnaroli rice
-
1/2 cup white wine
-
1 teaspoon white or black truffle oil
-
1 pound mixed wild mushrooms, thinly sliced
-
1/2 cup freshly grated Pecorino cheese
-
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
Directions
- In a medium saucepan, bring the stock to a simmer. Keep warm. In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil and add the mushrooms.
- Season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the shallots and saute for another few minutes until the mushrooms are nicely caramelized and the shallots are cooked through and translucent.
Add the rice and cook, stirring until well coated with olive oil and beginning to toast. Add the wine and cook, stirring until the wine is absorbed. Add 1 cup of the warm stock and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until nearly absorbed.
- Continue adding the stock 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly, until it is nearly absorbed between additions. The risotto is done when it is opaque and just the sauce that has formed from the rice, creamy. About 20 minutes total. Add the truffle oil and cheese in at the very end, and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
