Ingredients

  • 300 g Arborio Rice
  • 1.5 litres Vegetable Stock
  • 1 Onion Finely chopped,
  • 2 cloves Garlic Minced,
  • 200 g Mushrooms Sliced,
  • 400 g Tomatoes Canned and diced,
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 1 tsp Dried Basil
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • Basil Fresh leaves for garnish,
  • Parmesan Cheese Grated, for serving.

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until they become translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the pan. Cook for another 5 minutes until the mushrooms start to brown.
  • Stir in the Arborio rice and cook for 2 minutes, ensuring the rice is well coated with the oil and mixed with the other ingredients.
  • Add the diced tomatoes (without the juice) and continue to cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Begin adding the vegetable stock, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously. Allow the liquid to be absorbed before adding more stock. Continue this process until the rice is creamy and cooked al dente, which should take about 20-25 minutes.
  • Season the risotto with dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to incorporate the seasonings.
  • Remove the risotto from the heat and let it rest for a minute. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  • Serve the Tomato and Mushroom Risotto hot, garnished with fresh basil leaves and a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
