Mushroom and Spinach Risotto
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, heat the vegetable broth over low heat.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until softened.
- Add the Arborio rice to the skillet and stir to coat with the oil. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add a ladleful of the warm vegetable broth to the skillet and stir until the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding the broth, one ladleful at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more. This process will take about 20 minutes, and the rice should be creamy and tender.
- While the risotto is cooking, in a separate skillet, sauté the sliced mushrooms until they are golden brown and tender. Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted.
- Once the risotto is creamy and tender, stir in the sautéed mushrooms and spinach. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until melted and well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the mushroom and spinach risotto hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy!
