Risotto is one of the most iconic dishes in Italian cuisine. From a purely technical point of view, it is a reduction of cooked rice broth with various ingredients that vary according to the recipes. The rice cooks by absorbing the hot broth, which has been previously sautéed in butter or olive oil. The first addition of liquid is usually white wine. At the end of cooking, a generous piece of butter, Parmesan cheese, or a large spoonful of mascarpone is added to create the creaminess in the risotto and make it even more velvety. Italians call this "mantecare". Traditionally, preparing risotto requires a lot of effort, patience, and a certain know-how. So, is it possible to make a good risotto with Thermomix? The answer is, of course, yes, and it will be just as creamy and flavorful as if you had made it traditionally. The good news is that you won't have to stand in front of the pot to stir regularly and monitor the cooking ;) Thanks to your Thermomix, making risotto has never been easier! Here, I propose a delicious recipe for mushroom and zucchini risotto. The quantities given here guarantee a perfect consistency. The zucchini and mushrooms add even more creaminess to the dish, all seasoned with a vegetable stock that we recommend making at home. If you happen to consult this recipe when it's not zucchini season, you can simply increase the amount of mushrooms (up to 250 grams). Whether as a main dish or as a side, you can be sure to delight everyone, young and old :)
