• Stir the onions, then start breaking sausage (I like to use a flat, wooden spatula tool, like you see in the photos) into smaller pieces
• Once sausage is broken up, mix onions and sausage together until sausage is fully cooked and starts to brown. Remove from pan and set aside with the soaked porcini mushrooms or fresh sauteed mushrooms.
• In same pan, add 1 tablespoonful of olive oil, (heat should still be medium high), then add rice. Stir constantly, (add a little more oil if rice is too dry or sticks,) and cook for 1 minute.
• Add wine and stir constantly until it evaporates
• Start adding about 1/2 cup (113 ml) of hot stock (keep it in a pot on the stove) at a time, stirring so the rice doesn't stick and until it is absorbed
• Continue adding the stock to the rice, always stirring. The rice will continue to grow as you add the water.
• Once all the water has been added, return the other ingredients to the pan
• Stir thoroughly and continue to cook until the rice is al dente. It should take no longer than 20 minutes to cook risotto; 18 minutes is usually perfect. Click here to see a short video clip of stirring the Italian sausage and mushroom risotto.
