Ingredients:
3 cups organic chicken stock
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
4 portobello mushrooms, diced
1 yellow onion, minced
Sea salt
2 cups Arborio rice
3/4 cup good white wine
1/2 cup crumbled gorgonzola
1/3 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Freshly cracked pepper
Directions:
Bring the chicken stock to a bare simmer in a saucepan.
Meanwhile, heat the butter and olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until golden, 1 minute. Add the mushrooms, onions and 1 teaspoon sea salt and saute for 8 minutes. Stir in the rice and cook for 2 minutes. Deglaze with the wine and cook until the wine has reduced completely. Ladle in the simmering broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until the rice absorbs all the broth before adding more. Repeat until all the broth has been added and the rice is al dente, about 20 minutes. Stir in the cheeses and a pinch of sea salt and pepper.

Oh man, was this good. Now, I admit some recipe... alterations. I used boring white button mushrooms, skipped the wine and used some extra stock, and my gorgonzola looked sketchy so I just added some more parm. Boo. I bet it would have been even better with the blue cheese in it. Oh well. Next time. Risotto is always delicious, but I swear if I had to cook it for one minute longer my arm would have fallen off. What I wouldn't give to have a RoboStir!
Just kidding... I think.
