MEDICINAL MUSHROOM RISOTTO

MAKES

4 - 6 servings

PREPARATION TIME

1.5 hours

STEP 1:

In a large pot pour in some olive oil and add in the onions, garlic and mushrooms. Fry until nicely browned. Add in the rice and the wine and stir.

STEP 2:

Allow the wine to cook off and then slowly add in the stock a little at a time. You can now also add in the herbs, mushroom powders, nutritional yeast and pepper.

STEP 3:

Let the liquid cook off and keep adding small amounts until the rice is cooked. You can taste it at the end and add in some salt to your taste. Stock can be quite salty so it’s good to wait until you have added it all in before you add more salt.

STEP 4:

I like to fry some exotic mushrooms in olive oil and lemon juice on a high heat to add on top and sprinkle with crunchy cashews, lemon rind and nutritional yeast.
