Servings:
Ingredients
- .7 oz dried porcini mushrooms
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 2 Tbsp. avocado oil + 2 Tbsp. vegan butter
- 5 cups baby Bella mushrooms sliced
- 1/2 cup shallots chopped
- 1/2 cup yellow onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 sprig dried thyme
- 2 Tbsp. vegan butter
- 1-1/2 cups Arborio rice
- 1/4 tsp. Himalayan salt
- 1/8 tsp. black pepper
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup vegan parmesan cheese
- Parsley to garnish
Instructions
- In medium pot, bring vegetable broth to boil and reduce heat to low. Add porcini mushrooms, cover and cook for 4 minutes. Remove porcini mushrooms and slice.
- In large pot over medium heat, warm avocado oil and butter mixture. Add porcini mushrooms, baby Bella mushrooms, shallots and onions; cook for 6 minutes. Add garlic and thyme and cook another 2 minutes. Transfer mixture (including liquid) to bowl and set aside.
- In same large pot, combine 2 tablespoons vegan butter with uncooked rice for 1 minute (avoid browning rice). Add salt, pepper and white wine. Cook until liquid absorbs.
- Return mushroom mixture to pot with rice. Slowly pour in 1/2 cup hot vegetable broth and stir until mostly absorbed. Add another 1/2 cup and so on until rice absorbs all of the liquid (this step takes roughly 35 minutes). Stir in vegan parmesan.
- Remove thyme sprig, spoon into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley and serve.
Notes
Chef’s tip: In step No. 4, make sure liquid absorbs completely before adding more hot broth. This is VERY important!
