Time 33m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 ¾ cups vegetable broth
3 ½ tablespoons hot water
1 pinch saffron threads
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ onion, thinly sliced
10 ½ ounces Arborio rice
½ cup white wine
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 ¾ ounces pancetta, cubed
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Pour vegetable stock into a saucepan over low heat. Cover and keep warm.
  • Combine hot water and saffron threads in a small bowl.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a stovetop pressure cooker. Cook and stir onion until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add Arborio rice; cook and stir until toasted and coated with oil, 2 to 3 minutes. Increase heat and pour in wine; simmer until alcohol has evaporated and rice has absorbed wine, about 2 minutes.
  • Stir vegetable stock and saffron mixture into the pressure cooker. Seal according to manufacturer's instructions. Increase heat to high; cook until cooker whistles, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cook for 4 minutes.
  • Remove cooker from heat and release pressure according to manufacturer's instructions. Remove the lid. Stir in 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, pancetta, and butter. Let stand until rice absorbs remaining stock and Parmesan cheese melts, 2 to 3 minutes.

This risotto is a great way to use up leftover rice. I usually have some leftover rice from dinner, and I'll make risotto with it the next day.

I'm not a big fan of saffron, so I used turmeric instead. It still turned out great!

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted the pancetta for mushrooms. It was still delicious!
