Steps:
- For this recipe, once you have started the baby onions, go straight to the risotto so they cook simultaneously.
- For the baby onions, heat the olive oil in a small saucepan and add the onions, sugar and bourbon. Cover and cook over a very low heat, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes. If the onions begin to dry out, add a tablespoon of water. You may need to uncover the pan during the last few minutes for the liquid to evaporate (if it has not evaporated by then, turn up the heat).
- Meanwhile, for the risotto, heat the oil in a skillet and add the onion. Cook for a few minutes then add the garlic.
- Add the risotto rice and stir well to coat with the oil.
- Add the red wine and stir until the wine has soaked in completely.
- Add the stock 1/2 a cup at a time, making sure the stock has been completely absorbed before you add more. This will take around 20 minutes. When all the stock is absorbed, taste the rice to make sure it is cooked but still firm. Remove from the heat.
- Save about a third of the goats cheese to crumble over the risotto. Stir the rest into the risotto.
- Put the risotto onto plates, top with the caramelised onions and crumbled goats cheese. Garnish with sprigs of thyme and serve!

RED WINE & GOAT CHEESE RISOTTO WITH CARMELIZED MUSHROOMS
Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoons of butter and olive oil over low heat, then add mushrooms. Let cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally until mushrooms are juicy and caramelized. While mushrooms are cooking, in a large saucepan heat 1 tablespoon each of butter and olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add rice, tossing to coat in the butter and oil, then toast while stirring occasionally for 3-4 minutes. Add in wine, stirring every few minutes until absorbed. Once absorbed, add in 1 cup stock, stirring until absorbed like you did with the wine. Repeat 2-3 more times, until all stock has been added and absorbed. This should take about 15 minutes - I do not stir constantly, but actually just keep an eye on it and stir every few minutes. Taste rice and determine if the they are cooked to your liking (if not, add in 1 more cup of stock and stir). Reduce the heat to low and add in salt, pepper, 5 ounces of goat cheese and mushrooms, then stir. Serve with remaining goat cheese crumbled on top and a sprinkling of fresh basil.
Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
- Use Good Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final dish. Use fresh, flavorful vegetables and high-quality cheese and wine.
- Toast the Rice: Toasting the rice before adding the liquid helps to bring out its nutty flavor and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Add the Liquid Gradually: Add the liquid to the rice gradually, stirring constantly. This will help the rice to absorb the liquid evenly and prevent it from becoming too soupy.
- Cook the Risotto Until Al Dente: The risotto should be cooked until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked risotto will be mushy and unpleasant.
- Stir in the Cheese and Butter: Once the risotto is cooked, stir in the cheese and butter until they are melted and combined. This will make the risotto creamy and flavorful.
- Garnish and Serve: Garnish the risotto with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, before serving. You can also add a drizzle of olive oil or a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
