Method

  1. 1.

    Sear the mushrooms — Heat the olive oil and fry the mushrooms over high heat for 8 minutes until golden. Add the garlic for the last minute, then set aside and keep the stock warm.

  2. 2.

    Toast the rice — Melt half the butter and soften the onion for 5 minutes. Add the rice and toast 2 minutes, then pour in the wine and stir until absorbed.

  3. 3.

    Add stock and simmer — Add hot stock a ladle at a time, stirring and adding more only when absorbed, for 18 minutes. Stir the mushrooms back in halfway through, until the rice is creamy and al dente.

  4. 4.

    Finish with butter and parmesan — Off the heat, beat in the remaining butter and the Parmesan to mantecare. Season, fold in parsley and serve.
