Steps:
- Bring the broth to a simmer in a heavy medium saucepan. Add the porcini mushrooms. Set aside until the mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Keep the broth warm over very low heat.
- Melt the butter in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add olive oil. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 8 minutes. Add the white mushrooms and garlic. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the porcini mushrooms to a cutting board. Finely chop the mushrooms and add to the saucepan. Saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice and let it toast for a few minutes. Add the wine; cook until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add 1 cup of hot broth; simmer over medium-low heat until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook until the rice is just tender and the mixture is creamy, adding more broth by cupfuls and stirring often, about 28 minutes (the rice will absorb 6 to 8 cups of broth). Stir in the peas. Mix in the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, bring the broth and water to a simmer. In a large pot, heat the oil over moderately low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the rice to the pot and stir until it begins to turn opaque, about 2 minutes.
- Add the wine and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until all the wine has been absorbed.
- Add the sun-dried tomatoes and about 1/2 cup of the simmering broth to the rice and cook, stirring frequently, until the broth has been completely absorbed.
- The rice and broth should bubble gently; adjust the heat as needed. Continue cooking the rice, adding broth 1/2 cup at a time and allowing the rice to absorb the broth before adding the next 1/2 cup.
- Cook the rice in this way until tender, 25 to 30 minutes in all. The broth that hasn't been absorbed should be thickened by the starch from the rice.
- You may not need to use all of the liquid, or you may need more broth or some water. Stir in the pepper, pesto, and Parmesan. Serve the risotto with additional Parmesan.

Steps:
- Heat the broth and maintain at a simmer.
- In another saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter. Add the garlic and shallots and saute until limp, about 2 minutes.
- Add the rice and stir to coat with the butter. Add the wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until the wine is absorbed.
- Add 1/4 cup of the broth and cook over medium heat until the broth is absorbed. Continue to cook and add 1/4 cup of the broth at a time, stirring occasionally, until all the broth has been absorbed.
- When the broth is all absorbed, stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Then stir in the tomatoes, cheese, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve at once.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for Arborio or Carnaroli rice, fresh vegetables, and flavorful stock.
- Toast the rice in a little butter or olive oil before adding the liquid. This helps to release the starch and create a creamy texture.
- Add the liquid gradually, stirring constantly. This helps the rice to absorb the liquid evenly and prevents it from becoming gummy.
- Cook the risotto until it is al dente, with a slight bite to it. It should not be too soft or mushy.
- Stir in the peas and sun-dried tomatoes towards the end of cooking. This will help them to retain their color and flavor.
- Finish the risotto with a knob of butter and a grating of Parmesan cheese. This will add richness and flavor.
Conclusion:
Risotto with peas and sun-dried tomatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture, flavorful ingredients, and vibrant colors, this risotto is sure to impress your family and friends.
