Indulgent beef risotto with thyme, mushrooms, and asparagus - ideal for entertaining.
Ingredients:
  • 600g gravy beef, fat trimmed
  • 2 brown onions
  • 3 fresh thyme sprigs, plus 60.00 ml extra leaves
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 1/2 L (6 cups) beef stock
  • 36.40 gm olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 400 g (2 cups) arborio rice
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) dry white wine
  • 1 bunch asparagus, cut into 2cm lengths
  • 25gm parmesan
  • 60g baby spinach
  • 400g mixed mushrooms, sliced
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Lemon wedges, to serve
  • Parsley leaves, to serve
  • Baby rocket leaves, to serve
Instructions:
  • Chop 1 onion. Combine the chopped onion, thyme, bay leaf, and stock in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add beef and simmer covered for 1 hour until beef is tender.
  • 1. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the beef from the cooking liquid, then shred it coarsely. Strain the liquid into a saucepan, discard any solids, and keep the stock warm by covering it.
  • Dice the remaining onion into a fine consistency. In a large saucepan over medium heat, heat half of the oil. Sauté the onion for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in garlic and cook for another minute. Add rice and thyme leaves, stirring to coat for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Pour in the wine and simmer until absorbed. Slowly incorporate warm stock, ladle by ladle, stirring continuously and letting each addition be absorbed before adding more. Cook for 25 to 30 minutes until the rice is al dente, adding asparagus in the last 5 minutes. Take off the heat, mix in parmesan and spinach, season, and stir well. Cover and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.
  • Heat the rest of the oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Sauté mushrooms for 5 minutes until softened. Mix in mushrooms and beef with risotto.
  • To enjoy, garnish the risotto with lemon zest, parsley, and the extra parmesan. Serve with lemon wedges and baby rocket leaves alongside.
