NUTTY MUSHROOM RISOTTO
Mushroom risotto is one of my favorite dishes. The addtion of the cashews gives this just a slight crunch and really compliments the flavor. Don't let the thought of making risotto scare you, it does take a little time and attention, but it really is easy and not all THAT time consuming. It's a great accompaniment to an oven baked main dish, so that you don't have to worry about other stove top dishes.

Steps:
- Warm chicken broth either on stove or in microwave
- Heat 2 Tablespoons butter and oil in large skillet or sauce pan over medium heat
- Stir in shallots, cook for 1 minute to soften
- Add mushrooms and basil and saute until mushrooms are softened, about 2 minutes
- Adjust heat to medium high and add rice, salt and pepper, stirring constantly until rice is just starting to turn golden, 1 or 2 minutes
- Add wine and stir until almost completely evaporated
- Begin adding chicken broth, about 1/2 cup at a time
- After each 1/2 cup addition, stir frequently, until broth is almost evaporated and add the next 1/2 cup
- Do the same for each addition of broth, stirring frequently
- Begin tasting the rice for doneness during the last two additions of broth for tenderness--it should be al dente-tender with a slight bite to it
- If rice is not done after the last addition, continue cooking as above adding another 1/2 cup of broth until done
- Remove from heat and stir in remaining tablespoon of butter, lemon zest, cream if using, cheese and cashews
- Adjust salt and pepper as needed, remembering that if you are using salted cashews it will add to the saltiness of the dish
- Serve immediately
- Note: The cream will make it extra creamy
