Instructions
  1. Cook the sliced mushrooms in a skillet with 1 tablespoon of butter, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme until golden brown for 15 minutes.
  2. Deglaze the pan with 1/4 cup of white wine and allow to reduce. Set aside. The mushrooms can also be cooked in the Instant Pot using the sauté function.
  3. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in Instant Pot using the sauté function. Add the onions and sauté for 2 minutes.
  4. Place the rice in the pot with the onions and continue stirring until the rice becomes translucent and the edges begin to toast.
  5. Deglaze the pan with white wine and add the salt, prepared mushrooms, and vegetable stock. Stir to combine.
  6. Lock the Instant Pot lid and set to manual - high pressure for 9 minutes, making sure the pressure valve is in the sealing position.
  7. When finished, do a quick pressure release by setting the valve to venting.
  8. Add the frozen peas, remaining butter and a splash of the vegetable stock, stirring to finish. The peas will heat through in about 3 minutes.
  9. Top with Parmesan cheese to taste. Enjoy!

    Made it twice now because its so rich and creamy! I rough chop the mushrooms by pulsing in the food processor because i want them to be same size as the peas. Use a good wine that you enjoy drinking.

    Turned out perfectly. I used a large shallot instead of onion and some baby spinach instead of peas. This one is a winner

    I added garlic when cooking the onions. I also finished with a splash of heavy cream inatead of broth to make it more rich and creamy.

    I too added garlic and sauted everything in the instant pot in order. And the addition of cream worked well.

    I just want to say that I have made this several times. I double the mushrooms because I love them. Thank you so much. It is delicious and beats stirring the risotto for an hour over the stove.

    Really good risotto. I also added a can of mushroom soup (with the broth) and garlic before closing it.
