Presentation
Good autumn recipe to prepare with seasonal yellow squash, cheap and quite quick.
Ingredients
- 300 g of rice

- 1 small onion
- vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons of raisins
- 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan
- salt and pepper
Prepare risotto with pumpkin
First, slice the powdered onion and fry it briefly in extra virgin olive oil. Separately, peel the pumpkin, cut it into cubes and add it to the pan; then let it flavor over low heat for about 10 minutes. At this point, add the rice and raisins and start adding the broth, stirring occasionally. Cook for about 20 minutes and turn off the heat when the rice is still a bit "slow". When cooked, add the Parmesan and, if you like, a spoonful of pine nuts.
Raisins and pine nuts give an original touch to this risotto with its bright color and delicate flavour.

The best time to enjoy pumpkin risotto is from September to October, when yellow pumpkins are in season. Pumpkins are harvested from September to November.
