Classic Baked Risotto

Baked?  Traditionally the preparation of risotto requires approximately a half-hour of constant stirring.  With this easy version, the stirring is replaced with 40 minutes of baking.

Mushroom and Onions
3/4 cup unsalted butter 175 mL
6 quarts sliced assorted mushrooms – shiitake, oyster,
chanterelle
6 L
3 cups finely chopped onions 750 mL
2 tbsp finely chopped garlic 25 mL
1-1/2 tsp each of salt and ground black pepper 7 mL

Preheat an oven to 350°F (180°C).

Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a large saucepan. Add the mushrooms,
onions, garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the liquid has
evaporated and the mushrooms begin to turn golden, approximately 5 to 7 minutes.

7-1/2 cups U.S. short grain brown rice 1.875 L
3 cups dry white wine 750 mL
4-1/2 quarts chicken stock 4.5 L

Rice and Broth:
Stir in the rice to coat with the fat.

Add the wine and chicken stock and bring to a boil.

Put the saucepan into the preheated oven and cook, stirring occasionally, until
the liquid has been almost completely absorbed and the rice is tender with a
firm centre, approximately 40 minutes.

3 cups grated Parmesan cheese 750 mL
2 cups chopped parsley 500 mL
Shaved Parmesan

Garnish:
Remove the rice from the oven and stir in the Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.

Serve garnished with shaved Parmesan.

YIELD: 24 SERVINGS
