MIXED MUSHROOM &
MASCARPONE RISOTTO
Setting: Risotto
Makes about 8 cups
tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup finely chopped shallots
(about 1 small)
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
teaspoons sea salt, divided
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper,
divided
450 g sliced mixed mushrooms
(shiitake work very well), divided
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, divided
cooker cups Arborio rice
2
3
cup dry white wine
4 cups chicken stock, hot
5 large fresh basil leaves,
thinly sliced (chiffonade)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1
3
cup grated Parmesan
¾ cup mascarpone
Put the olive oil in the cooking pot of the Cuisinart
®
Rice Plus Multi-Cooker. Select the Risotto function
and press Start. Once oil is hot and shimmering,
about 2 minutes, add the shallot, garlic and a pinch
each of the salt and pepper. Sauté until softened,
about 3 minutes. Add 1⁄3 of the mushrooms, butter
and 2 teaspoons of the thyme. Sauté until softened
and fragrant, 2 minutes. Add the rice and sauté
until just translucent, about 10 minutes. Pour in the
wine and cook until almost completely evaporated
and then add the remaining mushrooms, salt and
pepper. Sauté for about 3 minutes, until they are
just starting to cook.
Pour in all of the hot stock. Close the lid of the
cooker and let the risotto finish cooking.
Once the audible tone has sounded to indicate the
end of cooking, open the lid and stir in the reserved
thyme, basil, lemon juice, Parmesan, and
mascarpone.
Serve immediately. If you wish to use the Keep
Warm function, more stock will need to be added
before serving to ensure a creamy consistency.
