This mushroom risotto is a recipe I make often. It’s quick, easy, guaranteed deliciousness. Why I haven’t posted it on the blog yet is beyond me…

And no, you don’t need any cheese to achieve this creamy texture and full flavour!

I usually just make it with vegetable stock cubes but lately have been using my gut-healing vegetable broth which is not only more nutritional but adds a wonderful flavour. I also recommend mushroom stock, if you happen to have some.

For a subtle cheesy flavour, I often add nutritional yeast – you can buy this in health food stores or online but don’t worry if you can’t find it. It’s still delicious without it!

This risotto is:

Dairy-free Vegetarian & vegan Gluten-free Nut-free Soy-free

Yield: 2 Creamy Mushroom Risotto (Vegan + GF) Print An easy, healthy weeknight meal that's super creamy and full of flavour. Prep Time 10 minutes Cook Time 30 minutes Total Time 40 minutes Ingredients 1 tbsp olive oil

1 shallot, or 1/2 white onion, diced

3 garlic cloves, minced

100 g button mushrooms, thinly sliced

100 g risotto rice

500 ml vegetable stock

1/2 tbsp white wine vinegar, (Optional)*

4 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes, (Optional)**

Fresh parsley, to serve

Salt and pepper, to taste Instructions Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan. Add the shallot and garlic and cook on a medium-low heat until softened. Add the mushrooms and cook for a further minute. Stir in the risotto rice and immediately pour in the stock and vinegar (if using). Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer for approximately 30 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is cooked. Add more hot water, if necessary. Once cooked, stir in the nutritional yeast (if using), stir in a handful of chopped fresh parsley and season with salt and pepper. Serve and enjoy! Notes *White wine vinegar adds extra flavour but it still works well without it. **Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavour but again, still works well when left out.
