A perfect wild mushroom dinner idea. This dish amazes, and it's not complicated to prepare
In a large pan, heat 25 g of butter and add finely chopped onion and garlic. Sauté over medium heat until the onion becomes translucent. Then, add the chopped wild mushrooms and sauté until they soften and turn golden. Add Arborio rice. Stir for 2-3 minutes until the grains turn translucent.
Pour in the white wine and cook until it evaporates, stirring occasionally. Gradually add the broth, stirring until the rice absorbs the liquid. Repeat until the rice is al dente (about 18-20 minutes). Remove the pan from the heat, add the remaining butter and grated Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with parsley.
