In a large saute pan, over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the onions. Season  
with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring. Saute until the onions are  
slightly soft, about 3 minutes. Add the stock and garlic. Bring the mixture  
to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer for about 6 minutes. Add  
the rice and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the mushrooms  
and continue to simmer, stirring constantly, until the mixture is creamy and  
bubbly, about 8 minutes. Stir in the butter, cream, cheese, green onions,  
and truffle oil. Simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the  
heat. Spoon the risotto in the center of each shallow bowl. Garnish with the  
croutons and shaved truffles.  
Yield: 8 to 10 servings
