This is my own take on farro risotto. Not a traditional preparation by any stretch, but an easier method that still tastes great!

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups water, or more as needed
2 cups farro
3 tablespoons butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add farro and reduce heat to simmer; cook until tender, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until slightly soft and fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and season with onion powder, garlic salt, and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, about 10 minutes.
  • Drain and discard any excess water from the farro; add farro to the pan with the mushroom mixture. Add chicken stock and increase heat to a simmer, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese and stir until melted, about 1 minute more.

This risotto was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more salt and pepper next time. The mushrooms were also a bit dry. I think I would sauté them in butter before adding them to the risotto.

This risotto was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would use less butter and cheese next time. The mushrooms were also a bit overcooked. I would recommend sautéing them for a shorter amount of time.
