Description

Rich and earthy mushroom risotto gets its depth of flavour from dried porcini.

Method

Step 1 of 7

Soak the porcini in 1 litre of boiling water for 20 minutes in a large bowl. Drain the liquid into a bowl and add a vegetable stock cube, stirring to combine. Reserve the porcini.

Step 2 of 7

In a large, deep frying pan, drizzle oil and cook the leeks and garlic over a medium heat for 3 minutes to soften.

Step 3 of 7

Stir in the chopped chestnut and porcini mushrooms and cook for 6-8 minutes to soften.

Step 4 of 7

Stir in the rice, cook for one minute and pour in the wine, cooking until it has evaporated. Add a quarter of the mushroom stock and simmer until the rice has absorbed it, stirring often.

Step 5 of 7

Repeat this step 3 more times with a quarter of the stock, stirring to absorb, until the rice is nearly cooked. Add the peas and asparagus with the final quarter of the stock.

Step 6 of 7

Remove the rice from the heat, stir in the butter and half the grated parmesan and season to taste. Place a lid on and allow to sit for 5 more minutes.

Step 7 of 7

Serve topped with the remaining grated parmesan and chopped parsley.
