Garlic Mushroom Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Bring the broth to a boil over high heat.
• Cover; reduce to low and keep at a simmer.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
• Add the rice and stir for about 1 minute to coat all grains.
• Add the garlic and cook an additional minute.
• Add about 1/2-cup of the simmering broth and stir well.
• Stir often until the liquid is absorbed.
• Add another 1/2-cup of the broth and repeat the process.
• It should take about 30 minutes until the last of the broth is absorbed.
• Regulate the heat if it appears that the liquid is absorbed too fast.
• When the rice is done, add the Parmesan cheese and stir well to combine.
• Garnish with the parsley.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, warm the broth over low heat.
• Warm 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the mushrooms, and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Remove mushrooms and their liquid, and set aside.
• Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to skillet, and stir in the shallots. Cook 1 minute. Add rice, stirring to coat with oil, about 2 minutes. When the rice has taken on a pale, golden color, pour in wine, stirring constantly until the wine is fully absorbed. Add 1/2 cup broth to the rice, and stir until the broth is absorbed. Continue adding broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring continuously, until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is al dente, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from heat, and stir in mushrooms with their liquid, butter, chives, and parmesan. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the onion and garlic in the olive oil until onion is tender and garlic is lightly browned. Remove garlic, and stir in the parsley, celery, salt, and pepper. Cook until celery is tender, then add the mushrooms. Reduce heat to low, and continue cooking until the mushrooms are soft.
• Pour the milk and cream into the skillet, and stir in the rice. Heat to a simmer. Stir the vegetable stock into the rice one cup at a time, until it is absorbed.
• When the rice has finished cooking, stir in the butter and Parmesan cheese, and remove from heat. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Put 50g dried porcini mushrooms into a large bowl and pour over 1 litre boiling water. Soak for 20 mins, then drain into a bowl, discarding the last few tbsp of liquid left in the bowl.
• Crumble 1 vegetable stock cube into the mushroom liquid, then squeeze the mushrooms gently to remove any liquid.
• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a shallow saucepan or deep frying pan over a medium flame. Add 1 finely chopped onion and 2 finely chopped garlic cloves, then fry for about 5 mins until soft.
• Stir in 250g chopped chestnut mushrooms and the dried mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and continue to cook for 8 mins until the fresh mushrooms have softened.
• Tip 300g risotto rice into the pan and cook for 1 min. Pour over a 175ml glass of white wine and let it bubble to nothing so the alcohol evaporates.
• Keep the pan over a medium heat and pour in a quarter of the mushroom stock. Simmer the rice, stirring often, until the rice has absorbed all the liquid.
• Add about the same amount of stock again and continue to simmer and stir - it should start to become creamy, plump and tender. By the time the final quarter of stock is added, the rice should be almost cooked.
• Continue stirring until the rice is cooked. If the rice is still undercooked, add a splash of water. Take the pan off the heat, add 25g butter and scatter over 25g grated parmesan or Grana Padano cheese and half a handful of chopped parsley leaves.
• Cover and leave for a few mins so that the rice can take up any excess liquid as it cools a bit. Give the risotto a final stir, spoon into bowls and scatter with the remaining 25g grated cheese and the remaining chopped parsley leaves.

Steps:

• Saute mushrooms in butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a deep skillet, saute the onion and garlic in oil over medium heat until soft.
• Stir in the rice and cook 1 minute, coating rice with the oil.
• Stir in 1 cup of the hot broth and let simmer until the liquid is mostly absorbed, stirring frequently.
• Repeat with the remaining broth and hot water.
• Taste for doneness: the rice should be creamy and slightly chewy in the center, not dry.
• Add more hot liquid if necessary to cook longer.
• Total cooking time should be 20-25 minutes.
• Stir in the mushrooms, cheese and parsley and season to taste.
• Cook till warmed through.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Slice the top off the head of garlic. Put it on a large square of aluminum foil and drizzle 1 teaspoon of the extra-virgin olive oil over the exposed cloves. Wrap the foil around and over the garlic. Roast until it is soft, about 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Pour the 2 cans of broth into a saucepan, over low heat, and add 3 cans of water. Bring to a simmer.
• In a large, heavy bottomed skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute for 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and cook until the mushrooms release their juices, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and cook for 1 minute to toast.
• Add 2 ladles full of hot broth to the pan and gently stir the rice. Cook until most of the liquid has been absorbed. Adjust the heat so that the pan is just gently bubbling. Continue adding broth and stirring until all the broth is used and the rice is cooked but not mushy, about 20 to 25 minutes. Once the rice has absorbed all the liquid and is nice and creamy, stir in the butter, Parmesan and the garlic pulp. Cover and let rest for 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and serve hot.
• Reserve 3 cups for the round 2 recipe, Risotto Cakes.
• In a large bowl add the leftover risotto, eggs, corn, bread crumbs, and Parmesan and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Mix to combine well. Form into 12 balls about the size of a walnut, then flatten into patties and arrange on a baking sheet.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook until they are golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the patties from the oil to a baking sheet lined with a brown bag or paper towels to drain the excess oil. Transfer to a serving tray and serve hot.

Steps:

• Bring stock to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to low; whisk in 1 tablespoon garlic puree, and continue to simmer.
• Remove stems from mushrooms, and finely chop. Cut mushroom caps into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add caps, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 5 to 7 minutes; transfer to a bowl.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon butter to pan. Add shallots and mushroom stems, and cook, stirring, until shallots are soft, about 2 minutes. Add rice; cook, stirring, until coated with oil and butter, 3 to 4 minutes. Add wine; stir until completely absorbed.
• Stirring constantly, add 3/4 cup simmering stock at a time, letting rice absorb each addition before adding the next. Continue to add stock until rice is creamy but al dente, 17 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons garlic puree and 4 tablespoons butter, along with the cheese, chives, and reserved cooked mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish risotto with additional cheese and chives.

Steps:

• Thinly slice or tear the mushrooms.
• In a very hot pan, heat the olive oil, and add the mushrooms and thyme. Cook for 1 minute, toss them, then add the garlic and a pinch of salt.
• Cook for 2 or 3 more minutes, taste them to make sure they're cooked through. Add some parsley, a pinch of chili powder, a squeeze of lemon juice, and some pepper. Toss about another minute more, and remove from the heat.
• Finely chop half the cooked mushroom mixture. Add the chopped half to the basic risotto recipe at step 8 (the same time you add liquid or stock).
• Add the other half of the mushroom mixture at step 12 (with the butter and cheese at the very end).

Steps:

• Slice the pork AGAINST the grain as thinly as possible;.
• if using un-frozen pork, place it in the freezer beforehand for 30 minutes to one hour which will make this much easier (if using pre-frozen pork, simply slice it before it is completely thawed).
• Heat 1 TBS of the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed soup pan (I use a non-stick one), and when it is hot, add the flattened garlic clove.
• Fry the garlic till it is browned, then remove and discard.
• Add the pork slices and quickly stir-fry till completely cooked through (just a few minutes); remove and set aside.
• Heat the butter and remaining olive oil in the pan.
• Add the onion and minced garlic and saute just until the garlic becomes fragrant.
• Add in the rice and mix well to coat the grains with the oil.
• While doing this, bring the water with chicken bouillon cubes added to a boil in a large pot, then reduce to a low simmer.
• Using a one-cup ladle, add enough of the simmering broth just to cover the rice, adjusting the heat under the rice so that it is at a low simmer.
• As the rice absorbs this liquid, add another ladleful of the simmering broth to the rice, stirring as needed and repeatedly adding more broth just as the previous amount is absorbed by the rice (but never allowing the rice to go completely dry); this process will take 30-45 minutes, but can't be rushed.
• After the last of the bouillon is absorbed, the rice will be cooked and creamy in consistency.
• Add in the cream, wine, paprika and cheese and mix well.
• Add in the mushrooms, parsley and pork slices, again mixing well.
• Allow to simmer an additional 2-3 minutes, to heat everything through and till the mushrooms just begin to wilt but not cook.
• Add pepper if needed, then serve immediately.
