Once the rice grains have been heated add the white wine to the mushrooms.  On a medium heat keep stirring well until the liquid has been absorbed by the grains.  Next add a ladle of stock.  You need to keep adding the stock stirring well each time so it doesn't stick.  It takes about 20 - 25 minutes to add all the stock depending on your hob.
