I used to avoid mushrooms at all costs but this farro risotto has convinced me that mushrooms aren't so bad after all. 😉I made this creamy faux risotto in my pressure cooker and it's SO good. 😍 The mushrooms add a delicious savory, earthy flavor that pairs perfectly with the Parmesan cheese!
.
To keep this risotto on the healthy side, I used farro instead of traditional arborio rice, so it has more protein and fiber than your standard risotto!
.
This recipe is just 7 ingredients and it only requires about 10 minutes of active prep & cooking time! Head to the blog for tips and tricks, plus more info about farro!
.
INGREDIENTS
1 ½ cups pearled farro (I used earthlychoice brand. It’s usually sold near the rice!)
2 tablespoons butter
1 yellow onion, minced
8 oz baby Bella or button mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups broth (I used imaginesoups vegetarian no-chicken broth)
2 oz parmesan cheese (about ¾ cup shredded)
.
INSTRUCTIONS
In a blender or food processor, add the farro and pulse 8-10 times to break down the grains.
Set the pressure cooker to saute.
Add the butter and saute until melted.
Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add the mushrooms and continue to cook for 3 minutes, stirring to ensure it doesn’t burn.
Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Add the vegetable broth and farro and stir.
Set the pressure cooker to manual for 13 minutes.
After 13 minutes, quick release the pressure.
Stir in parmesan and add salt to taste. Add additional broth, if needed.
