Ingredients
  • 3 onions, julienned
  • 10 sprigs thyme, plus more for serving
  • 4 tbsp butter, divided
  • 2 tsp salt, divided
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup arborio rice
  • 3 cups beef stock
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • Fresh grated Gruyère, for serving
Instructions
  • Set the Instant Pot to Sauté mode for 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons butter and stir until melted. Add the onions and half the salt. Stir to combine. Place the whole thyme sprigs on top.
  • Add 1/2 cup water, then seal the lid and Pressure Cook on High for 5 minutes. Perform a quick release and discard thyme stems.
  • Set the Instant Pot to Sauté mode for 20 minutes. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until onions are deeply caramelized and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  • Clean out the Instant Pot. Add the remaining butter, arborio rice, beef stock, and remaining salt. Seal the lid and Pressure Cook on High for 5 minutes.
  • Allow a 10-minute natural release, then flip the valve to release any remaining pressure. Stir in parmesan cheese until creamy. Fold in the caramelized onions.
  • Serve immediately, topped with freshly grated Gruyère and more thyme leaves.
