Instructions

Press SAUTE High on Instant Pot. Add oil and butter in the main insert. Add shallots, sprinkle salt, and cook for about 2 minutes until softened and lightly browned. Then, add garlic and sauté for another minute.
Add mushrooms and other vegetables, stirring until mushrooms sizzle and release water, turning darker brown.
Scoop out some mushrooms and veggies to use as a topping later. Mix in the rice with everything in the pot and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Then, add white wine and stir well.
Add broth, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Stir to combine. Adjust salt and deglaze the pot to prevent sticking. This is vital to avoid a BURN notice in the Instant Pot.
Cancel SAUTE. Secure the lid. Set to Manual or Pressure Cook on High Pressure for 6 minutes. After cooking, wait 10 minutes on the keep warm timer, then release leftover pressure by switching the valve from SEALING to VENTING. Open the lid.
Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and truffle oil until combined, then transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with reserved sautéed mushrooms and other veggies, and drizzle additional truffle oil on top.
Serve and enjoy your delicious risotto.

Notes

For added flavor, allow the risotto to sit for a couple of minutes after cooking before serving.
You can customize the vegetables based on your preference, or even use frozen peas and carrots for convenience.
Ensure you use Arborio rice specifically for the ideal creamy texture.
