Risotto is such a wonderful dish - here it is paired with two types of mushrooms, and the flavor of the mushrooms really infuses the rice because you cook them together as the rice cooks

Ingredients

 
1 cup arborio rice (or carnaroli rice)
 
4-5 cups hot chicken or beef broth
 
1 chopped shallot
 
1/2 chopped white onion
 
2 Tbs butter, divided
 
1 Tbs olive oil
 
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
 
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
 
8 oz chopped white mushrooms
 
8 oz chopped baby bella mushrooms
 
1/2 cup dry white wine, optional

Directions

Heat 1 Tbs butter and olive oil in a heavy cast iron skillet
saute shallot and onion. Add rice to skillet and stir until all grains are coated and
the edges begin to turn translucent (about 1-2 mins) . Add 1/2 cup white wine, if using, and
1/2 cup hot stock. Stir until liquid is mostly absorbed, add 1 cup hot stock and 1/2 of the chopped mushrooms and
stir, cook until liquid is almost gone, add another 1/2 cup of stock and cook, add remaining 1/2 chopped mushrooms
and slowly continue to add the stick stirring after each addition. When rice is cooked, firm but tender and the sauce looks
creamy, add 1 Tbs butter, and the cheese and stir and remove from heat. Serve immediately sprinkled with fresh parsley and
pass additional Parmesan if desired.

Maria Nice helpful video. So many people don't realize they must add HOT broth little by little when making risotto and wonder why it doesn't turn out like the risotto in an Italian restaurant. You just unlocked the mystery for many!!!
