Ingredients
Scale
1 ½ cups Arborio rice
4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1 cup white wine
1 cup leeks (white and light green parts only), sliced
8 ounces mushrooms (cremini or shiitake), sliced
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons truffle oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Prepare your broth: In a saucepan, heat your vegetable or chicken broth over low heat.
Sauté the aromatics: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onions, leeks, garlic, and a sprinkle of salt. Sauté until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the mushrooms: Toss in the sliced mushrooms and continue to cook until they are soft and golden.
Introduce the rice: Add the Arborio rice to the skillet and toast it gently for about 1-2 minutes.
Pour in the wine: Add the white wine and let it simmer away until it’s mostly absorbed.
Slowly ladle in the broth: Start adding warm broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently for about 18-20 minutes.
Check for doneness: Once your rice is creamy and al dente, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the butter, grated Parmesan cheese, and truffle oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve it up: Spoon the risotto into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs, chives, or a drizzle of truffle oil.
