- 1 tablespoon dried mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, peeled and chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
- 225 g (8 oz) fresh chestnut mushrooms, sliced

- Pour in the wine and simmer until it has been absorbed into the rice

Chef's notes
When adding the stock a ladle at a time, don't be tempted to hurry this stage. Always wait until the last ladle has been absorbed before adding the next - it's going to take about 20 minutes to complete.
