Lighter Mushroom & Cheese Risotto

Homemade mushroom and cheese risotto on kitchen table with white wine and Dubliner Lighter white cheese

Ingredients

 

    • 1 tbsp Low-fat margarine
    • 1 Onion, diced
    • 1 Garlic clove, crushed
    • 200 g Chestnut mushrooms, sliced
    • 300 g Arborio rice
    • 150 ml Dry white wine
    • 900 ml Vegetable stock, hot
    • 0.25 tsp Salt
    • 0.25 tsp Black pepper
    • 75 g Dubliner Light White, grated
    • 1 tbsp Chopped chives

 

Directions

  1. Place a large frying pan on a medium heat and add the low-fat margarine. Once hot, fry the onion and garlic for 6-8 minutes, or until soft.
  2. Stir through the rice, making sure to coat all the grains. Add the mushrooms and white wine and bring to a boil.
  3. Once the wine has reduced, turn down the heat and add a ladle of stock to the pan, along with the salt and pepper.
  4. Allow the rice to absorb the stock before adding the next ladle. This should take approximately 30-35 minutes in total, or until the rice has absorbed all the liquid, but retains a little ‘bite’.
  5. Stir through the cheese and allow to melt before serving.
