Mushroom Risotto (with Optional Truffle Oil). Paul Heathcote's mushroom risotto recipe is given a rich boost with the addition of truffle oil and Parmesan. For the mushrooms, use a selection of wild mushrooms or button mushrooms, and if making this for a vegetarian, replace the Parmesan with a cheese free of animal rennet. This creamy roasted mushroom risotto is infused with truffle oil, parmesan cheese, and even a little whipped cream right at the end!

Mushroom Risotto (with Optional Truffle Oil) step by step
- Chop the Onion and fine as possible and Fry in the Olice Oil to soften but not brown. About 5 mins on Medium - Add Garlic and fry for an extra 1 min. season with only a little salt and Lots and lots of ground black pepper. (If using Parmesan Cheese remember it is quiet salty so do not add too much salt at this stage - easy to add a little more at the table).
- Add the Butter, Mushrooms and herbs and cook for a few mins until Mushrooms start to soften and start to be golden. About 3-4 mins..
- Add the Rice and coat with the oily buttery goodness, at the same time heat the stock in a separate pan and kill hot - NOT boiling..
- Add 1 laddle of the stock to the rice and stir until all liquid absorbed, repeat until all the liquid used and your rice is cook and slightly firm - this is perfectly cooked..
- Serve in bowls add a little cheese on top and drizzle with truffle oil (optional).
The truffle oil makes it and my hubs (who hates mushrooms) loved it. I did the exact recipe except I added minced garlic when incorporating the chicken broth to the mixture and omitted the salt pepper and milk. It was creamy and savory without any of those. I used low sodium broth as well. Season your mushroom and truffle oil risotto with a bit of sea salt or kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper (go easy on the salt and pepper-you don't want to overpower the truffle oil!), to taste and garnish it with a small amount of fresh chopped parsley if you.
