Chef Cynthia's Dairy-Free Mushroom Risotto Recipe

Ingredients:

  • Olive oil, garlic, onion, fresh thyme, and rosemary
  • 250g portobello mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • ¾ cup arborio rice and 2 tbsp dried porcini mushroom powder
  • 1 cup white wine and 1.5 liters boiling water
  • 3 tbsp coconut cream and 1 tbsp savory yeast

Directions: Begin by heating olive oil in a large pan, then sauté the garlic, onion, and fresh herbs until fragrant. Stir in the sliced portobello mushrooms and cook until tender. Add the arborio rice, stirring constantly until the grains become translucent. Sprinkle in the porcini powder, pour in the white wine, and let it simmer. Gradually add boiling water, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously as the rice absorbs the liquid. Once the rice is soft and creamy, stir in the coconut cream and savory yeast for a velvety finish.
