Risotto with Lemon, Fennel and Mushrooms

For the risotto with lemon, fennel and mushrooms, finely chop the onion, remove the woody stalk from the fennel and cut into pieces, set aside the fennel greens.

Melt half of the butter in a heavy saucepan. Add the onions, fennel pieces and thyme and saute over low heat for a few minutes.

Stir in the rice. Once the rice is translucent, pour in the first ladle of hot soup. Stir until the rice has absorbed the liquid, then pour the next ladle of hot soup and stir. Continue in this way until the soup is used up and the rice still has bite.

Clean the mushrooms dry if necessary and cut them into flakes. Heat remaining butter in a frying pan and sauté mushrooms. Add lemon juice and continue to simmer until the mushrooms have absorbed all the liquid.

Once the rice is cooked, stir in the mushrooms, cream and half of the grated parmesan. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover the risotto and let it rest for a few more minutes.

Serve the risotto with lemon, fennel and mushrooms sprinkled with coarsely chopped fennel greens.

Preparation Tip:

Prepare the risotto with lemon, fennel and mushrooms also with chanterelles instead of mushrooms.
