Cooking Instructions

 

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pan and saute the mushrooms over medium heat until softened. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, melt the butter and cook the onion until softened. Stir in the rice and cook until the rice is lightly toasted.
  3. Add the wine and cook until evaporated, while stirring. Add the stock ½ cup at a time, stirring until absorbed after each addition. Continue until all the stock is added and rice is cooked al dente.
  4. Stir in the mushrooms and season to taste with the garlic & herb grind. Finish off with the cream and cream cheese, then the grated Parmesan cheese. You can also add a knob of butter to emulsify the risotto further and add a little shine. Garnish with chopped chives before serving.
