Steps

1 hour 30 minutes

1

Wash and trim the celery, cut it into three pieces, and place in a pot.
2

Peel and wash the carrot, cut it in half, and add it to the pot with the celery.
3

Peel and wash the onion, cut it in half, and add it to the pot with the other ingredients. Add cold water, bring to a boil, and make a vegetable broth.
4

Clean the Pleurotus mushrooms by scraping off any dirt with a knife.
5

Cut the mushrooms into small cubes and set aside for a moment.
6

In a skillet, heat the olive oil and finely chopped garlic. Sauté until fragrant, then add the mushrooms. Season with salt and black pepper, and cook for about 10 minutes.
7

After this time, add the white wine, let it evaporate, then add the rice. Toast the rice for a few minutes.
8

Begin cooking the rice by adding the vegetable broth a little at a time, stirring with a wooden spoon.
9

When the rice is almost done, turn off the heat, move the skillet off the burner, and add the butter, grated Parmesan, and finely chopped parsley. Stir until creamy.
