Best 4 Vegan Mushroom Risotto Recipes

VEGAN MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Pour vegetable stock into a large pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and keep warm.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in celery and garlic, and cook until garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and Arborio rice to the pot. Cook, stirring often, until rice is opaque and smells slightly toasted, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in white wine, and cook until it evaporates, an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Season with thyme, salt, and pepper.
• Begin stirring in reserved warm vegetable stock, 1 cup at a time, allowing each addition of stock to be fully absorbed before adding in the next, stirring continuously. Continue adding broth gradually while stirring constantly, until rice is tender and creamy, about 20 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper.

EASY CREAMY VEGAN MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute onion, garlic, and herbes de Provence. Add some vegetable broth if the mixture is too dry. Add mushrooms and leeks; cook until heated through, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Pour remaining vegetable broth and rice into the mushroom mixture. Add soy milk and vinegar. Let simmer until liquid is absorbed, stirring occasionally, 15 to 20 minutes.

GOLDEN MUSHROOM, PEA, AND ASPARAGUS RISOTTO (VEGAN)

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, place the vegetable stock and bring to a boil.
• Slice the asparagus spears diagonally into 1-inch pieces and place them in a fine mesh strainer. Place the strainer in the boiling vegetable stock and cook the asparagus in the stock for 2 minutes to blanch them.
• Remove the strainer from the stock and set the asparagus aside. Reduce the heat of the stock to low.
• In a large saucepan, saute the onion in the olive oil for 3 minutes to soften. Add the mushrooms and garlic and saute the mixture an additional 3 minutes.
• Add the Arborio rice, stir well to coat it with the sauteed vegetable mixture, and cook an additional 2 minutes while stirring constantly or until rice turns opaque.
• Add the white wine (or use some of the stock if omitting) and saffron threads, season to taste with salt and pepper, and stir well to combine. Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture while stirring occasionally until all of the liquid has been absorbed.
• Add 1/2 cup of the simmering vegetable stock and continue to cook, while stirring occasionally, until all of the stock has been absorbed.
• Repeat the procedure of adding a 1/2 cup of simmering stock, stirring, and cooking until fully absorbed before adding additional stock, until all but a 1/2 cup of stock remains.
• Add the blanched asparagus, along with the remaining ingredients, and stir well to combine. Cook the mixture an additional 2-3 minutes while stirring constantly, adding the remaining stock, as needed, so that the rice is tender and the risotto has a creamy consistency.
• Taste and adjust the seasonings, as desired.
