Pressure Cooker Risotto

We’ve always loved a good risotto, and its versatility means you can create it in countless ways. It’s also the perfect dish for using up leftover meat or vegetables that are on the verge of spoiling. The only drawback has always been the time and constant attention a traditional risotto demands. However, there’s a faster, easier way to enjoy risotto without the endless stirring: just use a pressure cooker! You’ll have a delicious, creamy risotto in a fraction of the time. This is the basic recipe. Meat and veggies can be added as desired. Our favorites include chorizo and mushrooms, as well as chicken and lemon.
