Initial Preparation

  1. 1

    To start, finely slice the onion. If you're using garlic, mince it.

  2. 2

    Turn on your Cookeo in "Brown" mode. Pour the olive oil into the pot. Add the onion (and garlic if you've added it) and sauté for about 2 minutes, until translucent.

Pressure Cooking

  1. 3

    Stir the Arborio or Carnaroli rice into the pot. Mix well with a wooden spoon until each grain of rice becomes translucent; this is called 'toasting' the rice.

  2. 4

    Pour in the dry white wine (or a little broth if you don't want to use wine). Let the alcohol evaporate for about 1 minute, stirring.

    Timer1 min
  3. 5

    Add the hot vegetable broth to the pot. Lightly season with salt and pepper with ground black pepper. Don't forget that the broth and Parmesan will already add salt.

  4. 6

    Close your Cookeo lid. Start pressure cooking for 8 minutes.

    Timer8 min

Finishing and Serving

  1. 7

    Once cooking is done, open the Cookeo. Add the butter and grated Parmesan to the risotto. If you want an even creamier texture, you can add 2 tablespoons of fresh cream at this point.

  2. 8

    Stir the risotto vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes. The butter and Parmesan will melt and create that characteristic creamy texture of risotto. This is the 'mantecatura' step!

    Timer2 min
  3. 9

    Chop the fresh parsley.

  4. 10

    Serve your risotto immediately on warm plates so it best retains its creamy texture. Sprinkle generously with chopped fresh parsley before enjoying.
