ingredients
- 5 cups vegetable stock
- 3 cups water
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter
- 3/4 cups onion, finely diced
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 ounces morel mushrooms
- 1 1/2 cups button or cremini mushrooms
- 1 cups shitake mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups arborio rice
- 1/2 cups Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 cups vegan cheese
Method
Step 1
Pour 3 cups boiling water into a bowl with the mushrooms and let sit for 30 minutes.
Step 2
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high setting and add your butter, garlic, and onions. Once the onions become translucent about 2-3 minutes. Then, add your mushrooms and stir fry for another 5 minutes. Once ready, set aside.
Step 3
In the same pan, add the stock from the mushrooms and rice and bring to a low simmer then lower to a medium-low setting. Stir frequently with a wooden spoon.
Step 4
When the liquid from the morels has evaporated, add 1/2 cup of hot stock to the rice and stir well. The key to making great risotto is to constantly stir. As each 1/2 cup of stock is absorbed, add another until there is no more liquid left and the rice is tender (about 25 minutes).
Step 5
Add the grated cheese and mushrooms and stir to incorporate. Add the chopped parsley and serve immediately. Unfortunately, this does not keep well in the fridge so make just enough.
