Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, heat vegetable broth over medium heat. Once simmering, reduce heat to low to keep warm.
- In the meantime, heat a large pan* over medium heat. Once hot, add oil and shallot and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes - stirring frequently. Then add mushrooms and coconut aminos and continue sautéing until the mushrooms are golden brown and caramelized. Optional: remove some of the shiitake mushrooms from the pan and reserve for serving - not necessary, but it makes a nice garnish.
- Add the thyme and arborio rice and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Then add dry white wine and stir gently. Cook for 2 minutes or until the liquid is mostly absorbed.
- Using a ladle, add warmed vegetable stock 1/2 cup (120 ml) at a time, stirring almost constantly, giving the risotto little breaks to come back to a simmer. The heat should be medium, and there should always be a slight simmer (adjust heat as needed). You want the mixture to be cooking consistently but not boiling or it can get gummy and cook too quickly.
- Continue to add vegetable stock 1 ladle at a time, stirring to incorporate, until the rice is 'al dente' - cooked through but still has a slight bite. This whole process should take about 15-20 minutes.
- Once the rice is cooked through and al dente, remove from heat and add vegan parmesan cheese. Stir to coat (see photo). Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding sea salt and pepper to taste or more vegan parmesan to enhance the cheesiness. If dry at this point, add a little more warmed broth.
- To serve, divide between serving bowls and top with reserved mushrooms, additional vegan parmesan cheese, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley (all optional).
- Best when fresh, though leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator for 4-5 days or in the freezer up to 1 month. Reheat on the stovetop with additional (warmed) vegetable broth until hot.

EASY MUSHROOM RISOTTO {OVEN-BAKED AND NO-STIR!}
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400° F. In a large Dutch oven or an oven-proof skillet with a tight-fitting lid, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook until just tender, about 3-5 minutes.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until they begin to sweat, about 3 minutes, then add garlic and thyme. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the rice and cook, stirring, until the rice is well coated in the pan juices, about 1-2 minutes. Add the wine and broth, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover with the lid and transfer the dish to the oven. Bake until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 45 minutes.
- Remove dish from oven, carefully take off the lid, and stir in the peas (if using), Parmesan, and parsley until creamy. I like to use a fork to fluff the rice as I stir, which helps prevent it from clumping together. Serve immediately.

CHEF JOHN'S BAKED MUSHROOM RISOTTO
The beginning and the end of this risotto recipe are pretty standard, but we've moved the middle 15 minutes into the oven in an attempt to eliminate those dreaded 'variables.' Besides being easier and more repeatable, this method produced a risotto that was identical in looks, taste, and texture to anything I can do on the stove.

Steps:
- Place racks in bottom third and middle of oven; preheat to 350°F. Toss mushrooms, garlic, thyme, red pepper flakes, 1/4 cup oil, and 1/2 tsp. salt on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast on bottom rack, tossing halfway through, until deeply golden brown and crisped, 25-30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large ovenproof Dutch oven or heavy pot over medium-high. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and slightly translucent, 3-5 minutes. Stir in rice; season with pepper and 1/2 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until some grains are translucent, about 2 minutes. Add vermouth, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, until pan is almost dry, about 2 minutes. Add 2 1/2 cups stock. Bring to a simmer, then cover and bake in oven until liquid is mostly absorbed but rice is still slightly firm in the center, 16-18 minutes.
- Return pot to stove and heat over medium. Add remaining 1/2 cup stock and cook, stirring constantly, until rice is tender but still has some bite and sauce is creamy, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan, butter, and lemon zest; season to taste with salt, if needed. Add a little bit of warm water, if needed, until risotto is thick but still pourable.
- Transfer risotto to a platter. Top with crispy mushrooms and parsley. Drizzle with oil. Serve with lemon wedges alongside.

Steps:
- 1. Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 400 degrees. Bring the broth and bay leaves to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cover and keep the broth warm over the lowest possible heat.
- 2. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, porcinis and ½ teaspoon salt and cook until lightly browned, about 9 minutes. Stir in the rice and cook until the edges begin to turn translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and saffron (if using) and cook until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add the wine and cook, stirring frequently, until it is completely absorbed, about 2 minutes.
- 3. Spread the rice mixture into a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Pour the warm broth over the top. Bake until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, 25 to 30 minutes.
- 4. Saute cremini mushrooms over medium high heat until browned, about 10 minutes. Stir theParmesan and mushrooms into the baked risotto. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the risotto will be. Use fresh, flavorful mushrooms, and a good quality broth.
- Toast the rice: Toasting the rice before adding the liquid helps to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Add the liquid gradually: Don't add all of the liquid at once. Add it in small increments, stirring constantly, until the rice is cooked through.
- Stir constantly: Risotto requires constant stirring. This helps to prevent the rice from sticking to the pot and ensures that it cooks evenly.
- Don't overcook the rice: Risotto should be cooked until it is al dente, with a slight bite to it. Overcooked risotto will be mushy.
- Add the cheese and butter at the end: Stirring in the cheese and butter at the end of cooking will help to create a creamy, flavorful sauce.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: A sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, will add a pop of color and flavor to the risotto.
Conclusion:
Baked mushroom risotto with caramelized onions is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The creamy, flavorful risotto is packed with mushrooms and caramelized onions, and it is topped with a crispy Parmesan crust.
