Directions

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in in a a heavy 6-quart saucepot over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook for 2 minutes or until tender-crisp, stirring often.  Add the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes or until tender-crisp and liquid is evaporated, stirring often.  Remove the mushroom mixture from the saucepot.

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the saucepot.  Add the rice and cook for 3 minutes or until the rice is opaque, stirring often.  Add the wine and cook and stir until absorbed.  Stir in 1 teaspoon thyme.

Add 3/4 cup hot broth to the rice mixture.  Cook and stir until the broth is absorbed. Repeat with the remaining hot broth, 1/2 cup at a time, cooking and stirring until it’s absorbed before adding more (the cooked rice will have a slightly chewy texture- you can continue adding broth if you want a softer texture).

Stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, cooked mushroom mixture and the remaining fresh herbs. Season to taste.  Cook until the mixture is hot. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs, if desired.
