Delicious! I followed ingredient amounts, though omitted the butter and Parmesan - it still turned out wonderfully. Smells amazing as you're cooking. Looks beautiful on the plate too.

This recipe is just lovely as is. I always worried about "building a risotto," but this was a wonderful surprise. When I cooked the mushrooms, I added a tablspn of prepared minced garlic and a nice splash of dry white wine. And I also did half butter and half olive oil to cook the rice. We had it as a side to corn-fed roast chicken and braised peas. PERFECT!! THANK YOU MYLEEN!

This is delicious! I just finished making it and now I'm waiting for my husband to finish the main dish. So simple and not painful to make at all!

This is an absolutely wonderful recipe! This is the second time I've made it, the first using wild mushrooms(1lb in total) and the second time, I added a few mushrooms and green beans! Definitely will be making this lots more.

This was my first time making risotto too. The only thing I did different was to add an extra clove of garlic and I used a lot more wine, decreasing the amt of chicken broth. I used dried reconstituted mixed gourmet mushrooms, which really gave it an amazing taste. Next time I might even try using the mushroom soaking liquid as part of the stock. Very yummy.

First off, cut the amount of mushrooms the recipe calls for in half! I used 3/4 the amount and it was too much for my taste (although my husband was in heaven). This was my first time making risotto and I've gotta say I'll def make it again. I didn't know rice could taste this good!

Very yummy creamy texture. Went well with chicken. The only hint: be sure to use low sodium broth otherwise it can be a little bit too salty. I cannot wait to try it with other meats. Thank you Myleen.

This was my first time making risotto and it turned out fabulous. The only alteration I made was to use a little less than half the mushrooms the recipe calls for. It's very easy, albeit time consuming but the result is worth every minute of stirring.

By far the best risotto I have EVER had. I am asked to make this weekly and there are never leftovers. I've made with regular onions since I did not have shallots and it was just as delicious. I also tend to leave the wine out as my family does not like it. Excellent, I will pass this one on for sure.

I made this almost as the recipes calls, but used a sauteed sweet onion instead of shallot, and omitted the chives, as I don't like them. It was awesome! Thanks for a great recipe!

This was my first time making risotto. It was time consuming but worth it! You really have to watch it the whole time it is cooking. You can't just throw this dish on the stove and walk away. I have added this to my favorites and will definately be making this dish again in the very near future!

Never fails to be an amazing dish, this recipe is so good it tends to be the focal point of the meal when served. Aside from cutting down on the mushrooms by almost half I do not deviate from this recipe at all. As the contributor said, "cooked the slow, painful way, but it's oh so worth it".

Wonderful. I can't imagine making risotto any OTHER way than the "slow painstaking way":) I use green onions instead of chives because I never have chives in the house and the green onions are beautiful in it as well. Also, half the amount of mushrooms works best for me. And lastly, since I don't make my own chicken stock, I just use the store-bought OXO type. Don't use Knorr! The OXO 25% less salt Chicken is the only way to go. The Knorr chicken bouillion powder is way too salty and overwhelming. This is my signature dish, so thanks for the help!
