Mushroom Asparagus Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large sauce pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened.
• Increase heat to high, add white wine and cook until almost dry; about 3 to 4 minutes. Add rice and stir until completely coated with oil and cook for 2 minutes.
• Add 1 cup of chicken broth, stirring constantly until most of the liquid is absorbed by the rice.
• Gradually stir in remaining broth 1 cup at a time; cooking and stirring until liquid is absorbed before adding the next cup.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add asparagus and sauté for 1 minute then stir in mushrooms. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until mushrooms just begin to sweat.
• Remove from heat and set aside until risotto is nearly finished cooking.
• Risotto is ready after the last cup of broth has been stirred in and rice has thickened.
• Remove from heat and stir in asparagus, mushrooms and parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper; top with additional shaved parmesan, if desired, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Remove stems from mushrooms; set aside. Cut mushrooms into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside two-thirds of the mushrooms and coarsely chop the remaining mushrooms; set aside. Place porcini mushrooms, mushroom stems, and 6 cups water in a medium saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Let boil for 2 minutes; immediately remove from heat and let stand 15 to 20 minutes. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve into another medium saucepan; discard solids. Place mushroom stock over low heat and keep covered until ready to use.
• Cut 2 inches from the top of asparagus; set aside. Cut remaining portion of the asparagus crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces. Bring a small saucepan of salted water to a boil; prepare an ice-water bath. Place asparagus tips in boiling water and cook until tender-crisp, about 2 minutes; drain and immediately transfer to ice-water bath to cool. Drain and set aside. Repeat process with 1/4-inch asparagus pieces.
• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add garlic and onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 2 minutes.
• Add rice and stir to coat. Add wine and increase heat to medium-high; season with 2 teaspoons salt. Let cook, stirring, until liquid is almost evaporated, about 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of the warm mushroom stock and cook, stirring constantly, until liquid is almost evaporated, about 2 minutes. Repeat this process 2 more times.
• Add reserved coarsely chopped mushrooms and season with 1 teaspoon pepper. Continue adding mushroom stock, 1/2 cup at a time, and cook, stirring, until liquid has almost evaporated, about every 2 minutes, until rice is al dente, 20 to 30 minutes total.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add remaining two-thirds of the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 2 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add asparagus tips and cook until lightly browned, about 1 minute more. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Add 1/4-inch pieces of asparagus to risotto and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove risotto from heat and add remaining 1/4 cup olive oil to risotto, along with butter and cheese. Stir until butter has melted and mixture is well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide risotto evenly among 4 serving plates. Top with sauteed mushrooms and asparagus tips. Drizzle with olive and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a medium stockpot, add the chicken stock and heat until warm.
• In a large stockpot set over medium heat, heat the oil until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Saute the mushrooms, shallots and asparagus until softened, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, 1 more minute. Add the arborio rice and a pinch of salt. Saute for 2 minutes. Then add the wine and cook until the liquid is absorbed, 2 to 4 minutes. Add the stock 1 cup at a time and cook, stirring after each addition, until all of the liquid is absorbed. Season periodically with salt and pepper to taste. (This process takes about 30 minutes of cooking and constant stirring.)
• Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the arugula, peas, cream, Parmesan, butter and lemon juice. Top with the mint and serve.

Steps:

• Place chicken stock in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until butter starts to bubble. Add asparagus and morel mushrooms; saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate with any accumulated juices.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in the same saucepan. Add shallot; cook and stir until softened, about 1 minute. Stir in arborio rice and cook until it starts to toast, about 1 minute. Pour in wine and cook until evaporated. Stir in thyme.
• Pour 1/4 cup of the simmering stock over the rice. Cook, stirring constantly, until stock is absorbed. Repeat with remaining stock until rice is tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Stir in asparagus and mushrooms with their juices and continue until flavors combine, about 3 minutes more.
• Remove rice from the heat. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and parsley. Season with salt and black pepper. Garnish with balsamic vinegar and additional olive oil before serving.

Steps:

• Snap off tough ends of asparagus. Remove scales from stalks with a vegetable peeler, if desired. Cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces; set aside.
• Cook broth in a saucepan over medium heat until hot; add mushrooms. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Cook onion in hot oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until tender. Add rice and wine and cook 2 minutes stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium . Gradually pour hot broth from mushrooms into rice mixture in skillet, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly. Allow rice mixture to absorb broth before adding more. Stir in asparagus and mushrooms; cover and cook 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in cheese , salt and pepper and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Prepare fresh mushrooms by cleaning and stemming. Set the stems aside. Cut the mushrooms into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside 1/3 of the mushrooms and coarsely chop them into smaller pieces.
• Put dried mushrooms, the stems from the fresh mushrooms, and six cups of water in a saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat. Let boil for two minutes, then remove from heat and let stand for 20 minutes. Strain mixture through a sieve, retaining mushroom stock and discarding the solids. Keep mushroom stock warm on low heat.
• Prepare asparagus: Cut off 2-inch tips of each stalk and set aside. Take the remaining asparagus spears and cut crosswise into 1/4" pieces. Bring a small pan of salted water to a boil and add asparagus tips; cook until tender-crisp (about two minutes). Drain and immediately plunge into an ice bath or very cold water to stop cooking. Repeat the process with the 1/4" asparagus pieces. (Keep them in separate bowls, because they're being added at different times.).
• In large skillet, heat two tablespoons of olive oil and add the larger mushroom pieces (that's the 2/3 portion of the mushrooms). Cook, stirring, until golden brown (about two minutes); season with salt and pepper to taste. Add asparagus tips and cook until lightly browned (another minute or two). Remove from heat and set aside.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a saucepan over low heat; add garlic and onion and cook until translucent (about two minutes).
• Add rice and stir to coat. Add wine and two teaspoons of salt and raise heat to medium-high; cook, stirring constantly, until wine evaporates (about two minutes).
• Add 1/2 cup of warm mushroom stock and cook, stirring constantly, until liquid is evaporated. Repeat this process two more times.
• Add reserved coarsely chopped mushrooms (that's the 1/3 of mushrooms cut into smaller pieces, that you haven't sauteed yet) and pepper to taste. Continue adding mushroom stock, 1/2 cup at a time, and cook, stirring constantly, until liquid has evaporated. (Should be 20 to 30 minutes total for the process of adding the mushroom stock).
• Add the 1/4" pieces of asparagus to the risotto and cook, stirring, for one minute.
• Remove risotto from heat and add remaining 1/4 cup olive oil to risotto, along with butter and cheese. Stir until butter has melted and mixture is well combined.
• Serve risotto topped with sauteed mushrooms and asparagus tips.
• NOTE: I don't use as much olive oil (or as much butter) as the recipe recommends, and it still turns out fabulously.

Steps:

• Place mushrooms in bowl and cover with cold water. Leave to soak for minimum of 20 minutes. Do not drain.
• **Place stock into a microwave jug. Heat in microwave for 5 minutes. Leave in microwave and continue to zap so stock is always hot. Alternatively, place stock into a pan and heat to a slow simmer.**.
• In a medium to large pan heat the oil and 40g of the butter over a low heat. Add onions and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
• Add rice and stir to ensure each grain is coated with the oil/butter. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Increase heat to low-medium.
• Add wine and stir continuously until liquid is absorbed.
• Now add a 1/2-3/4 cup hot stock to the rice and continue stirring until liquid has absorbed. Continue this process until the last of the liquid is almost absorbed.
• When last of the stock has been added (and almost fully absorbed) add the mushrooms. Grab handfuls of mushrooms and squeeze out water before adding. Do not drain then add, as any grit that has been removed will be added back. Stir.
• Add the asparagus. Continue to stir.
• When all liquid has been absorbed remove pan from heat. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed. Add parsley, remaining 10g butter and grated parmesan and stir to combine well.
• Serve immediately garnished with shaved extra parmesan and freshly ground black pepper.
