Ingredients
- 3 dried shiitake mushrooms
- 400 g brown button mushrooms, sliced
- 3 tbsp olive oil, plus extra to serve
- 1 brown onion, roughly chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
- 2 cups koshihikari rice
- ½ cup white wine
- 1 litre vegetable stock
- salt and black pepper
- 2 tbsp roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley, to serve
- 2 tbsp finely chopped dill, to serve
Resting time: 10 minutes
Instructions
1. Place the dried shiitake mushrooms in a high-speed blender and blend to a fine powder. Place the button mushrooms in a large, heatproof bowl and microwave for 5 minutes.
2. Preheat your oven to 160˚C (fan-forced). Heat a large heavy-based frying pan over medium heat and add the oil. Add the microwaved mushrooms (reserving any mushroom liquid in the base of the bowl for later) and fry until browned. Add the onions and garlic and fry for a few minutes, or until softened. Add the rice and about two-thirds of the shiitake powder (reserving the remainder to serve), and fry until the rice is coated in the oil.
3. Add the wine and stock (and any reserved mushroom liquid from earlier) and stir to combine, scraping any brown bits from the base of the pan. Season well with salt. Cover with a lid or foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and stand for 10 minutes more without removing the lid. Scoop the rice into serving bowls and scatter with parsley, dill and black pepper, and drizzle with a little extra olive oil and dust with the reserved shiitake powder to serve.
