Heat a wok and add the olive oil and sweat the onions and garlic. Add the arborio rice then cook a few minutes, with no colour.

Now add the wine and cook a further few minites stiring as it cooks. Cook for around 15 minutes adding a spoonful of stock every few minutes as it is required to keep the moisture up do not allow to become dry.

While this is cooking in another hot pan saute` diced field mushrooms for 2 minutes, season and sprinke with the thyme saving a small amount for final garnish.
