Ingredients

  • 1,5 liter water
  • 3 low fodmap stock cubes chicken or vegetable
  • 50 grams parmesan cheese
  • 400 grams Risotto rice
  • 200 grams oyster mushrooms
  • 2 tbsp Oil Garlic flavoured oil is great here
  • 100 ml Dry white wine
  • 1 pinch salt and pepper

Instructions

Stock

  • Pour the water and stock cubes into a saucepan. Bring up to a boil and reduce to low heat and continue simmering.

Making the risotto

  • Add a tablespoon of oil into a frying pan and bring up to a medium heat.
  • Pour the rice into the frying pan and toast the rice for a couple of minutes until the rice has gone translucent and picked up a slightly golden colour.
  • Add the wine and cook for a minute to burn off the alcohol.
  • Start adding the stock a couple of ladles at a time and stir continuously.
  • Keep adding stock when the risotto has absorbed most of the liquid. Keep doing this and keep scraping the bottom with a spatula to keep the rice from sticking.
  • When most of the stock is gone and around 20 minutes has passed the risotto should be done. Grate in the parmesan cheese and mix well.

Frying the mushrooms

  • Cut or rip the mushrooms into smaller bits. Pre heat a frying pan over medium high heat.
  • Add a tablespoon of oil to the frying pan and sear the mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until slightly softened and they have a nice golden colour.
  • Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and if desired some herbs of your taste such as (rosemary or thyme)

Finishing touch

  • Plate the risotto and place the mushrooms on top. Grate a little more parmesan and top with some freshly cracked black pepper
