Risotto con Zucca

(Risotto with squash)

  • 1 small yellow onion, small dice
  • 3 T extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 small butternut squash, peeled, cleaned and roughly chopped
  • 350 gr Principato di Lucedio Carnaroli rice
  • 2 liters vegetable stock, kept simmering
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 T Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • 1 T butter

Saute the onion in olive oil over medium heat until onion is translucent. Add the squash and saute for a minute. Add a few tablespoons stock to onion and squash mixture. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Add the rice and toast for 4-5 minutes. Add a ladle of stock at a time. Keep stirring the rice. As the stock evaporates, add another ladleful until the rice is nearly done, around 14-16 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Turn off the flame and stir in the cheese and the butter. Serve immediately.
