BARLEY RISOTTO WITH MUSHROOMS AND GOAT CHEESE


Barley makes an interesting substitute for rice in a risotto. It has a nutty and sweet fl avour which works well here with the mushrooms, the red wine and the goat cheese.

1 Put the dried mushrooms in a heatproof bowl and cover with 125 ml boiling water. Let soak for 20 minutes. Drain the mushrooms and reserve the soaking liquid. Roughly chop the mushrooms and set aside.


2 Combine the stock, red wine and reserved mushroom-soaking liquid in a saucepan over a low heat.


3 Heat half of the butter and the oil in a heavy-based saucepan over a medium heat. Add the leek and garlic and cook for about 4–5 minutes, until the leek has softened. Stir in the barley and cook for 1 minute, until glossy.

5 Add about 125 ml of the hot stock mixture to the barley and stir constantly, until almost all the liquid has been absorbed. (This will take a little longer than cooking with risotto rice.) Continue adding the liquid a little at a time and stirring for about 45 minutes, until all the liquid has been added and the barley is tender.


6 Stir in the goat cheese and remaining butter, until the cheese has melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper and sprinkle over the parsley. Serve immediately.
