Instructions

Plan my prep
  1. Step 1.Keep the vegetable stock at a gentle simmer in a separate pan throughout.
  2. Step 2.Heat the olive oil and half the butter in a wide heavy pan. Saute the mushrooms over high heat with the thyme until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Season, remove and set aside.
  3. Step 3.In the same pan, gently sweat the shallots and garlic for 3 to 4 minutes until soft but not colored.
  4. Step 4.Add the rice and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until the grains are coated and translucent at the edges.
  5. Step 5.Pour in the white wine and stir until almost fully absorbed.
  6. Step 6.Add the hot stock one ladleful at a time, stirring constantly and letting each addition be absorbed before adding the next. Continue for about 18 minutes until the rice is creamy but still has a slight bite.
  7. Step 7.Stir the sauteed mushrooms back in for the last few minutes to warm through.
  8. Step 8.Remove from the heat and beat in the remaining butter and the grated Parmesan vigorously to make it glossy and loose. Adjust seasoning.
  9. Step 9.Rest for 1 minute, then stir through the parsley and serve immediately with extra Parmesan.
