Ingredients (serves 4):
- 1 lb beef sirloin, cut into small cubes
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot to cook the risotto. This will help prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Stir the risotto constantly to ensure that it cooks evenly and doesn't stick to the pot.
- Add the beef broth to the risotto one cup at a time, stirring constantly until the liquid is absorbed before adding more.
Instructions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
2. Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 5 minutes.
3. Add the Arborio rice to the pot and stir to coat with the onion and mushroom mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the rice is lightly toasted.
4. Add one cup of beef broth to the pot and stir constantly until the liquid is absorbed. Repeat this process with the remaining beef broth, one cup at a time, until the rice is cooked through and creamy.
5. Add the cooked beef and Parmesan cheese to the pot and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Serve the Mushroom and Beef Risotto hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.
