Risotto, especially mushroom, is a wonderfully comforting food; and stirring contemplatively is a good way to slow down and chill out.

Instructions

Heat oil in a frying pan, gently cook onion and garlic until soft.

Add the rice, stir for a minute, then add a splash of white wine.

Once absorbed, add a ladle full of hot chicken stock, adding more as the liquid absorbs.

After about 10 minutes, add sliced field mushrooms.

Keep stirring and adding liquid until the rice is al dente and the mushrooms are cooked.

Sprinkle with fresh parmesan.

Serve with a glass of red wine and a green salad.
