250 ml 1 tasse bouillon de légumes
1 cuillère à soupe 1 cuillère à soupe huile d'olive
1 1 small shallot
1 1 gousse d'ail
100 g 3/7 tasse mixed mushrooms
30 ml 1/8 tasse dry white wine

Persil frais
Equipement
Casserole moyenne- Poêle à frire
- Cuillère en bois
- Tasses à mesurer
- Râpe
Directions
- Rinse the farro under cold water. In a medium saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a simmer. Add the farro and cook over medium heat until the farro is tender but still slightly chewy, about 20-25 minutes. Drain any excess liquid and set aside.
- While the farro is cooking, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot and garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour in the white wine, stirring to deglaze the pan. Let the wine cook off, reducing until the mushrooms are well coated and the liquid has mostly evaporated.
- Add the cooked farro to the skillet with the mushrooms. Stir to combine, then reduce the heat to low.
- Stir in the butter, Parmesan cheese, and fresh thyme leaves, allowing the cheese to melt and create a creamy texture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the risotto to a serving dish and garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy your hearty Mushroom Farro Risotto!
Notes
- To enhance the flavor, you can soak dried porcini mushrooms in hot water, then chop and add them to the fresh mushrooms. Use the soaking liquid as part of the vegetable broth for an even richer taste.
