How to prepare a wild mushroom risotto dish?
- Heat the chicken stock in a saucepan and keep on a low heat.
- In a large pan heat the olive oil and butter. Add onions, garlic and ginger. Cook slowly for ten minutes making sure to keep stirring.
- Add the mushrooms and continue to cook for another five minutes. Take the mushrooms out of the pan and set aside.
- Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and turn up the heat. Add the rice and cook for a few minutes until the rice is hot. Remember to stir the rice occasionally.
- Add the white wine and continue to stir until all of the liquid has cooked into the rice.
- Ladle the stock into the rice a cup at a time whilst continually stirring the dish.
- Once all of the stock has cooked into the rice add the mushrooms back into the rice.
- Add the parmesan, lemon zest and now season with the salt and pepper.
- Cover the dish and let stand for 5 minutes.
- Finally add the butter, coriander and a splash of black truffle oil. Taste again and adjust seasoning according to your taste.
