Recipe Directions
- In a heavy 3-quart saucepan, heat oil and butter over MEDIUM heat. Add onion and garlic; using a flat-edge wooden spatula, stir until fragrant.
- Add rice; continue tossing 8 to 10 minutes, until rice becomes translucent and begins to develop a nutty brown color. Add wine and simmer until almost completely absorbed.
- Add 1 cup stock, stirring across the bottom of the saucepan constantly until absorbed. Add remaining stock, 1 cup at a time, scraping the bottom of the saucepan continuously until liquid is fully absorbed before adding more.
- Add the last cup of stock and stir in the mushrooms and peas. Stir gently until liquid is absorbed, vegetables are warm throughout, and rice is al dente and creamy.
- Remove from heat and add cheese, stirring to combine. Serve immediately. Garnish with additional shaved Parmesan, to taste.
