INDO ITALIAN MUSHROOM RISOTTO 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Arborio rice
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1-inch ginger, grated
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp coriander powder
  • 1/2 tsp garam masala
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions:

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat the broth over low heat to keep it warm.

  2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until soft.

  3. Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  4. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes until they are tender and lightly browned.

  5. Add the cumin, coriander, garam masala, and turmeric powder to the skillet and stir to coat the mushrooms evenly.

  6. Add the rice to the skillet and stir to coat it with the spices.

  7. Pour in a ladleful of the warm broth to the skillet and stir until it is fully absorbed by the rice. Continue adding the broth, one ladleful at a time, stirring constantly, until the rice is cooked al dente and the broth is fully absorbed. This should take about 20-25 minutes.

  8. Once the rice is cooked, remove the skillet from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and remaining tablespoon of butter until they are fully melted and incorporated.

  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  10. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro. Enjoy!
