To make
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F.On a rimmed baking sheet, toss mushrooms with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Scatter half of the butter cubes around the mushrooms and roast for 20—25 minutes, until tender and lightly browned.
In a medium saucepan, heat the fish stock (or clam juice) and bring to a simmer. Keep warm over very low heat.
In a large saucepan, heat the remaining ¼ cup of olive oil with 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the shallot, garlic and a generous pinch of salt and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 1 minute. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until well coated with oil, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until absorbed. Add 1 cup of the warm stock and cook, stirring constantly, until nearly absorbed. Continue adding the warm stock ½ cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the stock to be nearly absorbed between additions. The risotto is done when the rice is al dente and suspended in a thick, creamy sauce, about 20 minutes total.
Stir mushrooms, 2 tablespoons of Parmigiano, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter into the risotto and season lightly with salt and pepper. Gently fold in the crab meat; add 1—2 tablespoons of water if risotto is too thick.
Spoon risotto into shallow bowls and garnish with the chervil. Enjoy!
