The Instant Pot Lemon Saffron Risotto is a delightful twist on the classic Italian dish, effortlessly merging the creamy comfort of risotto with a zesty citrus punch and the aromatic allure of saffron. As the pressure cooker works its magic, the rice absorbs the luscious flavours of vegetable broth, white wine, and a hint of garlic, transforming into a perfectly al dente base.
The addition of saffron threads lends a warm golden hue, while fresh lemon juice and zest brighten the dish, creating a harmonious balance of rich and refreshing notes. Finished with a generous handful of grated Parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil, this risotto is not only a feast for the palate but also an impressive centrepiece for any dinner table. Serve it warm with a scattering of parsley for a touch of colour, and enjoy a taste of Italy from the comfort of your home.
