1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil

Heat the butter and oil in the cooker. Saute the leeks until soft but not brow
n, about 2 minutes. Stir in the rice, making sure to coat it thoroughly with t
he fat. Stir in the mushrooms, olives, and 3 1/4 cups of the stock (watch for
sputtering oil). Lock the lid in place and over high heat bring to high pressu
re. Adjust the heat to maintain high pressure and cook for 6 minutes. Reduce
pressure with a quick release method. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you
to allow any excess steam to escape.
Taste the rice, and if it's not sufficiently cooked, add a bit more stock as yo
u stir. Cook over medium heat until the additiona liquid has bee absorbed and
the rice is desired consistency, another minute or two. When the rice is ready
, stir in the Paremsan and add salt to taste. Serve immediately.
