Heat the olive oil in a large pan, add the chopped onion and cook for 3 mts.
Bring the stock to the boil in a separate pot.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the onions, increasing the heat of the pan and seasoning with a little salt.
Let the mushrooms cook for 3 minutes.
Add the rice to the pan, stir will to coat the grains with oil, and cook over a medium heat for a further minute.
Add the boiling stock a a ladle full at a time allowing it to become absorbed by the rice before adding the next ladle.
Continue this process, stirring regularly to keep the cooking even.
This will take about an hour.
