👨‍🍳 조리법

1. 1

   Rinse the Arborio rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.

   💡 전문가 팁: Rinsing removes excess starch, preventing the pilaf from becoming too gummy.
2. 2

   In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

3. 3

   Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their liquid and started to brown, about 8-10 minutes.

   💡 전문가 팁: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook mushrooms in batches if necessary to ensure proper browning.
4. 4

   Stir in the paprika and dried thyme, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

5. 5

   Add the rinsed rice to the pot and stir to coat it with the mushroom and onion mixture. Toast the rice for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

6. 6

   Pour in the vegetable broth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil.

   💡 전문가 팁: Start with less salt and adjust later, as vegetable broth can be salty.
7. 7

   Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot tightly, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed.

   💡 전문가 팁: Avoid lifting the lid during simmering to maintain steam.
8. 8

   Remove the pot from the heat and let it stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes. This allows the rice to steam and become fluffy.

9. 9

   Fluff the pilaf with a fork and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

   💡 전문가 팁: Fluffing with a fork prevents the rice from breaking.
