  • Soak the spelt in a bowl with 300 ml of water overnight in the refrigerator. The next day, drain the spelt in a sieve.
  • Finely dice the onion and garlic. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pot. Sauté the onion and garlic over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add the spelt and sauté for 1 minute. Deglaze with wine and let it reduce. Gradually add the stock and cook for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spelt is tender and the stock has almost completely evaporated.
  • Clean the spring onion and finely slice the white and light green parts. Clean the mushrooms and slice them. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan and sauté the mushrooms for 2–3 minutes. Add the spring onions and toss briefly.
  • Stir Parmesan into the risotto. Arrange the spelt risotto with fried mushrooms and spring onions. Roughly tear parsley leaves over the top and serve.
