Ingredients
500 GMS MUSHROOS (cut into thin slices)
2 BELL PEPPERS (diced)
1 CUP RICE (ideally Arborio rice or other short grain rice)
1 TBSP OLIVE OIL
2 TBSP BUTTER (salted)
1/4 CUP ONION (diced)
2 CLOVES OF GARLIC (crushed)
4 CUPS CHICKEN OR MUSHROOM BROTH (warm)
1/2 CUP PARMESAN OR OTHER CHEESE (grated)
FRESH PARSLEY FOR GARNISHING (optional)
SALT/PEPPER TO TASTE
Instructions
⦁ In a large pan, heat the olive oil and then sauté the garlic and onions for a few minutes.
⦁ Then add the arborio or other rice and cook for a minute or so until the rice is slightly translucent.
⦁ Slowly add the broth, about 1/4 cup at a time, until it is absorbed. Then add the next cup, stirring all the time. This will take 15-20 mins, and the rice should be creamy but still firm.
⦁ In another pan, sauté the mushrooms and bell peppers until soft.
⦁ Add the mushrooms, bell peppers, parmesan, or other cheese and butter into the rice mixture. Add some salt/pepper to taste and mix well for a minute or two.
⦁ Take the pan off the stove, garnish the dish with more parmesan and fresh parsley, and serve it warm.
Your wholesome Creamy Bell Pepper and Mushroom Risotto is ready to be served. Add some garlic bread or serve as a side dish with grilled fish or chicken.
