Mushroom & Sausage Risotto

This was dinner.  I sauteed mushrooms, browned some diced sausage and whipped up a quick risotto.  I also added umami paste to the risotto during cooking to see what would happen.  (It worked.)

Its topped off with the shavings of 3yr Gouda.
A super quick and simple flavor explosion that will dazzle. 

In hindsight, if you add some chopped shallots into the cooked risotto, that would be a fun touch.

Or if you add chopped shallots and some scrambled eggs to the risotto, you'd then have a 'Kick-A** Family Sized Fried Rice-otto'...  I'm thinking post holiday.  Nomz!
