Episode Notes

Today's recipe is Birthday Breakfast Risotto.

• 6 Tbsp. salted butter, divided
• 1 medium onion, finely diced
• 16 oz. cremini mushrooms, sliced thin
• 1 (¼-inch) slice ham, finely diced
• 1 and ½ tsp. salt 
• 2 cups arborio rice
• 4 cups chicken or vegetable stock
• ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• ¾ cup thinly sliced green onion
• 4 large eggs

1. Select the Sauté button on the Instant Pot to preheat. When “Hot” is displayed on the Instant Pot, add 2 tablespoons of the butter. Stir until melted.
2. Add onions, mushrooms, ham, and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally until mushrooms begin to brown, about 3 minutes.
3. Add rice, stir to incorporate. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.
4. Add stock, stir until well incorporated. 
5. Place lid on pot, lock in place. Set valve to Sealing. Select the Pressure Cook button and set timer for 6 minutes.
6. When the pressure-cooking is nearly done, cook the eggs: In a large non-stick sauté pan melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Crack in the eggs. Cook until whites are opaque but yolks are still runny. Transfer cooked eggs to a plate or sheet pan to stop them from overcooking.
7. After pressure-cook time is complete, immediately switch valve to Venting to release pressure. Remove lid. Press the Cancel button. Remove inner pot to prevent rice from overcooking and place on heat-proof surface.
8. Add cheese and remaining 2 tablespoons of the butter. Stir vigorously until butter and cheese are melted and mixture is creamy.
9. Divide risotto evenly between four bowls. Top each with a fried egg and garnish with green onion.
