Ingredients:

• 1 cup Arborio rice
• 1 cup diced mushrooms (any variety you prefer)
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 small onion, diced
• 3 tablespoons butter

• 1/4 cup white wine (optional)
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions:

1. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add in the minced garlic and diced onion, stirring occasionally until translucent and fragrant.
2. Add in the Arborio rice and diced mushrooms, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes until the rice starts to turn a light golden brown.
3. If using, add in the white wine and stir continuously until it has evaporated.
4. Gradually pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, about 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the rice to absorb the liquid before adding more.
5. Once all the broth has been added and the rice is cooked to an al dente texture (it should be slightly firm with a creamy consistency), remove the pot from the heat.
6. Add in the grated parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper, stirring until the cheese has melted and is fully incorporated into the risotto.
7. Let the risotto sit for a few minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together.
