Mike ReidIngredients:
Mushroom Stock:

- 500ml Vegetable or Chicken stock
Risotto:
- 250g Mixed mushrooms, (King oyster, shitake, flat etc)
- 1 onion brown
- 275ml White wine
- 170g risotto rice
- 500ml Vegetable stock
- 100g Parmesan
Method:
- Dice 1 onion into an equal sized brunoise.
- Dry cook your rice for 1 minute before adding your onions and butter to the pan, cook out until the onions are soft and translucent. (allowing the risotto rice to absorb the fat), deglaze with white wine, and cook until almost gone.
- Add vegetable stock in small ladles, allowing the risotto to cook slowly and evenly. (it is essential that there is not too much risotto in the pan, too much causes uneven cooking)
- In a separate pan, sautee your mushrooms in butter over a medium heat.
- When your risotto is almost ready add your parmesan, mushrooms and butter and emulsify
- Finish with extra parmesan on top and enjoy.
