Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Arborio rice
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 200 grams Button mushrooms (sliced)
- 100 grams Cremini mushrooms (sliced)
- 6 cups Vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine
- 0.25 cup Nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced button and cremini mushrooms to the pot. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are browned and have released their moisture.
Remove the mushrooms from the pot and set them aside.
In the same pot, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the Arborio rice. Stir the rice frequently for about 2 minutes until lightly toasted.
Pour in the white wine and stir until almost completely absorbed by the rice.
Begin adding the vegetable broth, one cup at a time, stirring frequently. Allow the rice to absorb most of the broth before adding the next cup. This process should take about 20-25 minutes until the rice is creamy and cooked through.
Stir in the nutritional yeast, thyme, salt, pepper, and the cooked mushrooms. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
Continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes to let all the flavors meld together.
Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and fresh parsley.
Serve immediately while hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
