Indulge in the exquisite allure of mushrooms with a decadent creamy risotto.
Ingredients:
  • 1L (4 cups) chicken style liquid stock
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) dry white wine
  • 80g butter, chopped
  • 1 brown onion, halved, finely chopped
  • 100g Swiss brown mushrooms, sliced
  • 100g small button mushrooms, quartered
  • 440g (2 cups) arborio rice
  • 80g enoki mushrooms, ends trimmed
  • 20g (1/4 cup) finely shredded parmesan
  • 62.50 ml coarsely chopped fresh continental parsley
  • Pinch of salt
  • Shaved parmesan, extra, to serve
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 82.50 ml loosely packed shredded fresh sage
  • 2 tsp finely shredded lemon rind
  • Pinch of saffron threads
Instructions:
  • For the flavorful garlic, lemon & sage oil, gently warm the oil in a non-stick pan. Sauté garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Take off heat, then mix in sage, lemon zest, and saffron. Combine well and keep aside.
  • In a saucepan, bring stock and wine to a gentle boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and let it simmer.
  • In a heavy-based saucepan over medium heat, heat oil and butter. Cook onion for 2 minutes until soft. Stir in Swiss brown and button mushrooms and cook for 3 minutes until softened.
  • Stir in the rice and cook for 2 minutes until it becomes glassy. Pour in a ladleful (about 125ml/ 1/2 cup) of stock mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until the liquid is fully absorbed. Gradually add more stock, one ladleful at a time, stirring constantly until each ladleful is absorbed before adding the next. Cook for approximately 25 minutes until the rice is tender and the risotto turns creamy.
  • Cook the enoki mushrooms, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes until they are tender. Remove the pan from heat, then mix in the parmesan and parsley. Taste the dish and add salt as needed.
  • Divide the creamy risotto into serving bowls. Drizzle with the flavorful oil mixture and garnish with an extra sprinkle of Parmesan before serving.
