Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of arborio rice
- 2 cups of mushrooms (wild ones are the best)
- 1/2 cup of vegan parmesan
- 4 cups of vegetable broth
- 1.5 cup of light beer
- 2 tablespoons of vegan butter
- 3 tsp of fresh thyme
- a pinch of salt
- a pinch of pepper
- green onions or chives
Steps
- Roughly cut the mushrooms in medium sized-chunks
- Heat up 4 cups of vegetable broth in a pot until simmering, keep at that temperature throughout the cooking process, also keep a cup nearby to transfer the broth
- Put 1 tablespoon of vegan butter in a pan with the cut mushrooms and cook them slowly until they are slightly browned
- Put the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegan butter in a large pot and add 1 1/2 cups of arborio rice, roast the rice on high intensity for 2-3 minutes in the butter
- Lower the burner of the rice to low and start adding the broth to the rice, 1 cup at a time, stirring while the rice cooks and absorbs the broth, then adding more
- Once all the broth as been absorbed the rice should have doubled in size, it’s time to add 1.5 cup of light beer to the rice and cook it a bit more while stirring
- Once the beer has absorbed, turn off the heat and add 3 tsp of fresh thyme, the cooked mushrooms, 1/2 cup of vegan parmesan, and some salt and pepper to taste, mix well to incorporate all the ingredients
- Serve with some chopped green onions or chives and the leftover from the beer used to cook the risotto, enjoy!
