Directions
Gourmet Mushroom Risotto, In college, my friend Angela and I went to visit her granny. She made this for us. It was the first time I’d ever experienced anything like it. It was delicious and her granny gladly gave me the recipe., Tasty one, with white wine and butter, way to go! I added 2 cloves garlic with the shallot, and probably more butter., Wonderful recipe for Risotto! This is exactly like my go-to recipe, but use half the ingredients because there are only 2 of us at home, and it makes enough for 2 generous dinner portions, with some left over for a lunch portion the next day. I like to cook the mushrooms in a little butter and oil until browned, and set them aside to add in at the end of cooking. It helps button mushrooms keep a nice texture and not get mushy. If you don’t like mushrooms, you can substitute any vegetable you like. Sauteed sliced asparagus or steamed peas are an excellent addition, or if you like seafood you can use cooked small peeled shrimp or little bay scallops, sauteed first. Stir any additions in at the end to avoid overcooking. This method is exactly right for any flavor of risotto, or just make it plain and it’s great.
