Creamy Italian risotto with earthy mushrooms, parmesan, and a touch of thyme.
Slice mushrooms, dice onion, and mince garlic.
Heat olive oil and half the butter in a wide pan. Saute mushrooms until golden, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
In the same pan, saute onion and garlic until soft, about 3 minutes.
Add rice and toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Add warm water one ladle at a time, stirring frequently, allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding more. Continue for about 20 minutes.
Stir in mushrooms, remaining butter, parmesan, and thyme. Season with salt.
Serve immediately while creamy.
