Instant Pot Risotto




The easiest Risotto you'll make without stirring for 20 minutes. I added mushrooms and asparagus but you can use any vegetables or omit. Red wine was also added, which gives it the darker color. Whether you're cooking for 2 or 10 people, adjust the ratio to 1 cup of arborio rice to 2 cups of broth.



Serves 6

Ingredients


1 Tablespoon butter Vegetables: mushrooms and asparagus   1 Tablespoon butter or olive oil  1 onion finely chopped  3 garlic cloves minced  2 cups Arborio rice  ½ cup red or white wine (optional)  4 cups chicken or vegetable broth  1 Tablespoon unsalted butter  ½ cup grated parmesan cheese  1 teaspoon salt  1 teaspoon pepper  Garnish: Parmesan cheese and parsley


Directions

Press Sauté. Once hot, melt 1 Tablespoon of butter and sauté the vegetables until soft. Set aside.


Add 1Tablespoon of butter or oil and cook the onions and garlic for a few minutes until onions are translucent. Stir in the rice. Add wine and deglaze by scraping any browned bits off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Press Cancel.


Stir in the broth and cook on manual high pressure for 6 minutes. Quickly release pressure.


(It will look watery at first but will thicken once you add the butter and cheese)


Stir in the cooked vegetables, along with 1 Tablespoon of butter, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Garnish with parmesan cheese and parsley before serving.
