Steps

• Prepare the Mushroom Mixture
• Sauté the mushrooms in a pan with 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil until they are golden brown. Set aside.
• Cook the Risotto
• In a large saucepan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
• Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pan and sauté until they are translucent.
• Add the Arborio rice to the pan and stir it for a few minutes until it is coated with the butter and oil mixture.
• Pour in the white wine and cook until it is absorbed by the rice.
• Gradually add the vegetable broth, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until each addition is absorbed before adding more. Continue this process until the rice is cooked al dente, which should take about 20 minutes.
• Finish the Risotto
• Stir in the sautéed mushrooms, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper.
• Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mushrooms are heated through and the cheese is melted.
• Remove the risotto from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
• Serve the risotto hot and garnish with additional grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Tips

• Use a good quality white wine for the best flavor in the risotto.
• Stir the risotto constantly while adding the vegetable broth to ensure a creamy texture.
• Feel free to add other vegetables or herbs to customize your risotto.
