Instant Pot Mushroom Risotto Recipe
Description
The recipe begins by sautéing onion, garlic, and sliced mushrooms with rosemary and thyme in butter and olive oil. Dijon mustard is then stirred in to add subtle acidity and depth. Arborio rice and mushroom broth are added before cooking under high pressure for six minutes in the Instant Pot.
After a quick release of pressure, Parmesan cheese is folded in to achieve a creamy finish. The risotto offers tender rice grains with a pronounced mushroom flavor and herby notes from fresh rosemary and thyme.
For adjustments, plant-based butter and nutritional yeast provide a vegan alternative to dairy. Leftover risotto stores well in an airtight container for up to four days in the refrigerator.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter or plant-based butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/3 cup onion diced
- 3-4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 pound cremini mushroom thinly sliced, or button mushroom
- 1 tablespoon rosemary chopped, fresh
- 1 tablespoon thyme chopped fresh leaves
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 cups arborio rice
- 6 cups mushroom broth or vegetable broth
- ¾ cup Parmesan Cheese or ½ cup nutritional yeast
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Set your electric pressure cooker on Sauté. Add the butter and oil. Once hot, stir in the diced onion and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, then stir in the sliced mushrooms, rosemary, and thyme. Sauté for 5-8 minutes, until the mushrooms are soft.
- Mix in the Dijon mustard, rice, and mushroom broth. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of ground black pepper.
- Lock the lid into place and set the Instant Pot on Pressure Cook High for 6 minutes.
- Once the timer goes off perform a Quick Release. When the steam valve drops it is safe to open the lid.
- Stir in the Parmesan cheese and serve warm.
Notes
- Use plant-based butter and nutritional yeast to make a vegan risotto.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
