Recipe Summary Instant Pot® Italian Butternut Squash Risotto
Fresh butternut squash and classic Italian "aromi" join up for traditional risotto flavor made easy in your Instant Pot®. This will save a bit of time and a lot of muscle work but won't cheat on flavor.Ingredients | Vegetarian Slow Cooker Recipes Butternut Squash
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
⅛ cup chopped onion
⅛ cup chopped carrot
⅛ cup chopped celery
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced
2 cups peeled and diced butternut squash
½ cup chopped leek
1 ½ cups Arborio rice
½ cup dry white wine
4 cups warm vegetable broth
½ cup shredded smoked mozzarella cheese
¾ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, divided
4 teaspoons balsamic vinegar (such as Aceto Balsamico di Modena)
Directions
Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add olive oil, onion, carrot, and celery. Cook and stir until tender, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and rosemary and stir to combine. Add butternut squash and leek; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
Stir rice into the pot until each grain is coated with the olive oil-vegetable mixture, about 2 minutes. Pour in wine to deglaze and simmer for 3 minutes. Pour in vegetable broth, stirring to scrape the sides of the pot. Simmer for 1 minute.
Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 6 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Stir in smoked mozzarella and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.
Evenly distribute the balsamic vinegar among 4 plates. Spoon equal amounts of risotto onto each plate. Top with the remaining Parmesan cheese. Serve hot.
You can use carnaroli rice instead of Arborio rice as well.
Other smoked cheese can be used instead of smoked mozzarella.
