Risotto with porcini mushrooms and truffles is a delicious dish, where the creaminess of the risotto is enriched by the intense flavours of porcini mushrooms and truffles, creating a sublime culinary experience.

Ingredients for 2 persons:

-140 g Carnaroli rice
-1/2 Onion
-1 clove of garlic
-2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil

Procedure:

  1. First, soak the dried porcini mushrooms in a cup of warm water and let them soak for about 1 hour, then drain them.
  2. Once the soaking time for the mushrooms has passed, take a large pan and briefly sauté the onion with a spoonful of oil, then add the whole garlic. Now add the porcini mushrooms and sauté them for a few minutes.
  3. At this point, add the rice, toast it, and then pour in the white wine. Cook over high heat until all the alcohol in the wine has evaporated.
