Instructions
Step 1
Heat the broth over medium heat until simmering.
Step 2
Heat butter and olive oil over medium heat in a large pan then add onions. Cook until translucent, about 8 mins. Then add garlic and stir. One minute later add carrots, and then two minutes after that add celery.
Step 3
Add rice to pan and give it a good stir. Then add 1/2 cup broth. Stir until all the liquid is absorbed by the rice.
Step 4
Continue adding the broth 1/2 cup at a time, waiting until it is absorbed to add the rest. When you’ve used half the broth add the green beans. When you’ve used 3/4 of the broth add the mushrooms.
Step 5
When rice has been fully cooked stop adding broth (you may need slightly more or less than the recipe calls for). Add in cheese and stir until melted. Optional: squeeze a lemon on top or add fresh parsley.
