Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Finely slice the onion and mushrooms. Crush the garlic cloves

Step 2

Pour the stock into a saucepan and place on a low heat

Step 3

Add some oil to a large saucepan and heat to medium. Tip in the onion and cook until soft and translucent. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook down, stirring every now and then but not often, until caramelised and cooked through

Step 4

Now add the garlic and cook out for a few minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat in the oil and other ingredients, then start ladling in stock. Once you’ve added two or three ladles stop and let it reduce, stirring occasionally so the rice doesn’t catch

Step 5

Once the liquid reduces add another ladle of stock. Repeat this process until the rice is cooked al dente- it should take about 20 minutes. Once you’re happy with the texture remove from the heat and add the porcini mushroom paste.

Step 6

Split the risotto between four bowls and as an optional extra top with some parmesan.
