Ingredients
1 cup Arborio rice
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup heavy cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cooking until they become soft and fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are tender. Stir in the Arborio rice and cook for 1-2 minutes to lightly toast the grains.
Gradually add the chicken broth, about half a cup at a time, stirring continuously until the liquid is absorbed before adding more. Continue this process until the rice is creamy and cooked through, which should take about 18-20 minutes.
Once the rice is cooked, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let the risotto rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley.
Notes
Avoid overworking dough as it can become tough
Use a fork to create gnocchi ridges for better sauce adherence
Boil gnocchi until they float indicating they are cooked through
Cook in small batches to prevent sticking
