Enjoy a delicious Meat-free Monday with our beloved quick and easy microwave mushroom risotto.
Ingredients:
  • 60g butter, chopped
  • 1 leek, halved, washed, thinly sliced
  • 200.00 gm arborio rice
  • 765.00 gm chicken style liquid stock
  • 400g mushrooms, sliced (we used Swiss brown cups, buttons, shiitake)
  • 50g parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • 62.50 ml flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
Instructions:
  • In a large microwave-safe bowl, mix 20g of butter with leek and garlic. Cover loosely with a paper towel and microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes until the leek is soft.
  • Pour in the rice and gently mix to envelop it in the buttery mixture. Microwave, leaving it uncovered, on the highest setting for 1 minute. Add 2 cups of stock and stir. Cover it and continue microwaving on high for 5 minutes, then switch to medium power for 7 minutes.
  • Add the mushrooms and the rest of the stock to the mixture. Cover and microwave on MEDIUM (50%) for an additional 7 minutes. Let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Sprinkle in Parmesan, fresh parsley, and the rest of the butter. Season with a pinch of pepper. Gently mix everything together. Ladle into bowls and present.
