INSTRUCTIONS
prep time 45 mins
Combine stock and water in a pot and bring to a boil, then turn down to
barely simmering. While it is warming up, chop your veggies. Saute onion,
fennel and garlic using either wine or stock to keep them from sticking,
until softened in a large nonstick skillet over medium low heat. Add rice
and wine. Stir a bit to coat the rice. Once the mixture dries out add 1/2
cup broth and stir. When the it starts to dry out again add another 1/2 cup
of broth and stir. Keep this pattern up - you don't have to stir
constantly, but you do need to do it about every 1-2 minutes. Keep adding
broth as needed to keep it from sticking. After about 10-15 minutes add the
mushrooms and herbs. Keep stirring and adding stock another 5-10 minutes
checking the rice to see if it is done. If you run out of stock before the
rice is done, just add hot water as needed. Mine usually takes 25-30
minutes. Season w/ salt an pepper as desired. If you do the dairy thing,
top with ff parmesan cheese.
