Peel and finely chop the onion. Heat the butter in a large saucepan along with a splash of extra virgin olive oil (to prevent the butter from burning). Sauté the chopped onion over low heat until be translucent.
Meanwhile we prepare the mushrooms, that is, we clean them with a damp cloth and we chop them. Add to the saucepan, season with salt and pepper to taste and fry for a couple of minutes or until reduced by half. Add the rice and stir so that all the grains are well impregnated with fat.
Then add the white wine and stir again while the alcohol is absorbed and evaporated. At the same time we heat the broth and keep it at a constant temperature (without boiling) throughout the process.
When the wine has evaporated and the broth is hot, lower the heat (medium-low) and start adding broth. We do it little by little stirring the rice frequently so that it releases its starch. When the rice looks dry, add more broth and proceed like this for 15-16 minutes.
We taste the point of the rice and, if it is al dente (if this is not the case, we cook it a little more), we turn off the heat. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and liquid cream and stir. we let rest for a couple of minutes with the pan covered, during which time the risotto will finish cooking.
For an extra point of flavor and texture, we serve the mushroom risotto with cheese flakes Parmesan or parmesan grated on the surface and a few turns of ground black pepper. We can also decorate it with chives or chopped fresh parsley.
