Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Arborio Rice
  • 4 tablespoons British Blend Olive Oil divided
  • 8 ounces Mushrooms sliced
  • 1 small Yellow Onion finely diced
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup Dry White Wine
  • 4 cups Vegetable Broth kept warm
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Thyme chopped (optional for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Equipment: Large saucepan, wooden spoon, ladle, cutting board, knife.
  2. Prep Time: 10 minutes
  3. Cook Time: 30 minutes
  4. Total Time: 40 minutes
Prepare the Ingredients (5 minutes):
  1. Slice the mushrooms, dice the onion, and mince the garlic. Warm the vegetable broth in a separate saucepan over low heat.
Sauté the Mushrooms (5 minutes):
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of British Blend Olive Oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes, then remove and set aside.
Cook the Aromatics (3 minutes):
  1. In the same saucepan, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the onion and garlic until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Toast the Rice (2 minutes):
  1. Stir in the arborio rice, ensuring it’s coated in the oil and aromatics. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the rice becomes slightly translucent around the edges.
Deglaze with Wine (2 minutes):
  1. Pour in the white wine and stir until mostly absorbed. This step adds a bright, tangy depth to the dish.
Add the Broth Gradually (20 minutes):
  1. Using a ladle, add one scoop of warm broth to the rice, stirring constantly. Once the liquid is mostly absorbed, add another ladleful. Repeat this process for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is creamy and tender with a slight bite.
Finish with Mushrooms and Cheese (5 minutes):
  1. Stir in the cooked mushrooms, butter, Parmesan cheese, and a drizzle of British Blend Olive Oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve:
  1. Plate the risotto and garnish with fresh thyme and a final drizzle of olive oil for extra flavor.

Making risotto is like giving your stove a big, warm hug—it takes some love and attention, but the payoff is worth every stir. Watching the rice transform into a creamy masterpiece while the British Blend Olive Oil works its magic is pure kitchen therapy. Pair it with a crisp glass of white wine (for you, not the dish) and savor the moment.
