Butternut Squash Risotto
- 1 1/2 cups roasted butternut squash puree
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 3 cups vegetable broth, kept hot
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1) Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add onion and saute for 4 minutes or until tender.
- 2) Add garlic and cook for 2 more minutes.
- 3) Add rice while stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, cook for 2 more minutes.
- 4) Add turmeric and cook about 2 more minutes, stirring often.
- 5) Add 1 cup of the hot broth and cook, stirring frequently, until the rice absorbs the liquid. Continue adding broth in 3/4 cup increments and stirring often until the rice is creamy (not soupy) and soft but still al dente, about 25 minutes.
- 6) Remove from heat and add roasted squash and cheese. Stir. Add nutmeg to taste. Serve immediately. If not serving immediately, keep warm and add cheese right before serving.
