Mushroom Buckwheat (Kasha) “Risotto”

A Taste of Autumn

There is no better time to enjoy aromatic seasonal mushrooms than September. The market shelves are full of different varieties so picking a great quality product is easy. Mushrooms add a really deep, rich flavour to any dish, and I love them with this buckwheat “risotto".

I usually replace white rice with buckwheat for health benefits - it contains a lot of fibre and protein and gives nice nutty flavour to the dish. A very comforting new autumn classic.
