The essence of Lamieus is about empowerment in the kitchen. And what's more empowering than creating a dish that's both indulgent and cruelty-free? Dive into the depths of this rich, creamy, and utterly delightful mushroom risotto. While traditionally reliant on dairy, this version showcases how vegan ingredients can achieve the same luxurious taste and texture.

Ingredients:

  1. 1 cup Arborio rice
  2. 4 cups vegetable broth, kept warm
  3. 2 cups mixed mushrooms (like cremini, shiitake, and portobello), thinly sliced
  4. 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  5. 3 garlic cloves, minced
  6. 1 cup canned coconut milk (full-fat)
  7. 1/4 cup nutritional yeast (for a cheesy flavor)
  8. 3 tablespoons olive oil
  9. 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  10. Salt and pepper to taste
  11. Zest of 1 lemon (optional for added freshness)

Instructions:

  1. Sauté the Base: In a large skillet or pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and stir for another minute.

  2. Mushroom Magic: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté until they release their moisture and become golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. Rice Time: Stir in the Arborio rice and cook for 2 minutes, ensuring the rice is well-coated with the oil and has a slightly translucent edge.

  4. Ladle by Ladle: Begin adding the warm vegetable broth, one ladle at a time, stirring constantly and allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding the next. This process is crucial for achieving the creamy texture of risotto.

  5. Creaminess Unleashed: Once the rice is nearly done and has absorbed most of the broth (this should take about 18-20 minutes), stir in the coconut milk and nutritional yeast. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the risotto has a creamy consistency.

  6. Final Touches: Season with salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Stir in the fresh parsley, reserving some for garnish.

  7. Serve and Relish: Dish out your creamy mushroom risotto into bowls, garnishing with a sprinkle of fresh parsley. Pair with a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables.

Unleash the power of your kitchen with Lamieus's products and create a vegan masterpiece that stands as a testament to culinary innovation and compassion.
