How to make Mushroom Risotto in the Instant Pot
- Step 1: Take the lid off of your instant pot and turn on the saute mode.
- Step 2: Add olive oil, shallots, and mushrooms to your pot and saute until shallots become translucent and your mushrooms begin to sweat.
- Step 3: Stir in garlic and seasoning. Constantly stirring for about 2 minutes.
- Step 4: Pour in your white wine and continue to stir until the wine smell goes away, about one minute.
- Step 5: Before adding in your rice, taste one of the mushrooms to make sure that it is seasoned to taste. It is ok for it to be a little too salty because you will be adding broth to the pot.
- Step 6: Stir in your vegetable broth. Make sure the rice is fully submerged under the broth.
- Step 7: Place the lid back onto your instant pot and secure it close. Make sure the vent is sealed.
- Step 8: Cook at high pressure using either the “manual” or “pressure cook” function for 6 minutes.
- Step 9: Once the cooking is complete, turn off the “keep warm” function and use the natural release for 5 minutes. If the steam does not naturally release, the safely turn sealing to venting.
- Step 10: Carefully take off lid to your instant pot.
