Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely diced onions
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 1/2 cups arborio rice
  • 3/4 cup dry white wine
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • Pinch of nutmeg

Instructions

  • Using the sauté function on the Instant Pot, allow the pan to heat. Add olive oil, onion and garlic, and sauté, stirring as needed until onions are translucent, about 4 - 5 minutes.
  • Stir in rice, and cook until the remaining oil is absorbed.
  • Add wine and cook until absorbed, stirring as needed to prevent the rice from sticking.
  • Hit cancel to turn off the sauté function.
  • Stir in the remaining ingredients and change the Instant Pot to the high pressure function and set it to 6 minutes.
  • Allow the Instant Pot to come to pressure (this should take about 12 - 15 minutes). When the timer goes off, quick release the pressure according to the manufacturer’s directions.
  • Stir the risotto until any remaining liquid has incorporated and adjust seasoning with salt & pepper, to taste.
  • Garnish with fresh chives before serving.
