Ingredients

5 cups stock
vegetable broth or low salt chicken broth
1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
or other vegetable oil
3 medium shallots
thinly sliced
*
3 cups butternut squash
peeled and chopped, 1/2-inch pieces
*
2 cups mushrooms, shiitake
caps, thinly sliced
*
¾ teaspoon thyme
dried
*
½ teaspoon salt
or to taste
¼ teaspoon black pepper
freshly ground
*
1 cup arborio (short-grain) rice
½ cup white wine
dry
*
cup Parmesan cheese

Directions

Add broth in a medium saucepan, bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.

Reduce the heat, so the broth remains steaming, but is not simmering.

At the same time, add oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.

Stir in shallots, cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.

Add butternut squash and mushrooms, cook, stirring often, until most of the liquid comes out of the mushrooms, 4 to 6 minutes.

Stir in thyme, salt and black pepper, cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Stir in rice, stir until translucent, 1 to 2 minutes.

Pour in wine and cook, stirring, until almost absorbed by the rice, 2 minutes.

Pour in ½ cup of the hot broth, reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid has been absorbed.

Keep adding the broth ½ cup at a time, stirring after each adding until all the liquid has been absorbed, until the rice is tender and creamy, about 40 minutes . (You may have some broth left.)

Remove from the heat and mix in cheese.

Serve warm.
