Instructions

Preheat pressure cooker on the Sauté function for 2 minutes. Add canola oil and onions; sauté until onion is translucent and fragrant. Add mushrooms; cook until golden brown and have released their moisture, about 5-6 minutes. Add minced garlic and rosemary; sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add butter and melt; stir in Arborio rice, cook for 1 minute, stirring with a wooden spoon to coat in the butter.

Deglaze pot with wine, cooking until most of the wine is absorbed. Turn Sauté function off.

Add vegetable broth, stir to combine. Secure lid on pressure cooker, turn the venting knob to sealing, select the Soup function and cook for 6 minutes. Note, it can take 10-15 minutes for pressure to build.

In a shallow bowl add half the beans and lightly mash with a fork. Perform a quick pressure release, carefully venting the steam (this can take up to 5 minutes). Remove lid and discard rosemary sprig. Stir in whole and mashed white kidney beans and grated Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Select Sauté function and stir in heavy cream to finish. Cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the risotto is creamy and heated through.

Serve hot with a garnish of fresh parsley.

Notes

The cooking time may vary slightly depending on your specific pressure cooker model. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for safe and proper usage of your pressure cooker.

If using shiitake mushrooms, remove and discard stems before slicing.
