Pumpkin And Vegetable Risotto Recipes

PUMPKIN RISOTTO

Steps:

• In 1-quart saucepan, heat vegetable broth and water over medium-high heat just until simmering. Keep liquid at a simmer while preparing risotto.
• Meanwhile, in 3-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion in oil 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened. Stir in rice; cook 5 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until edges of kernels are translucent. Stir in pumpkin and wine.
• Reduce heat to medium. Stir in 1 cup of the broth mixture. Cook uncovered about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until broth is absorbed. Stir in remaining broth mixture. Cook 10 to 15 minutes longer, stirring frequently, until rice is just tender and mixture is creamy. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and pepper.
• To serve, sprinkle parsley, nutmeg and shredded Parmesan over each serving.

VEGAN PUMPKIN RISOTTO

PUMPKIN RISOTTO

Steps:

• In a medium-size heavy saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute, stirring continuously, just until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the rice and continue to stir, using a wooden spoon, to coat the rice with the oil.
• Add the white wine and continue cooking, stirring often, until it has been absorbed by the rice. Pour in enough chicken stock to cover the rice completely, about 3 cups, and continue to cook, stirring often, until all the liquid is absorbed.
• Pour in 1 cup more of the remaining stock and stir and cook until it has been absorbed. Repeat with 1 more cup. Add the remaining cup and cook, stirring, until the rice is al dente, tender but still very chewy, and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
• Stir in the pumpkin puree and the diced pumpkin and reduce the heat to very low so that the risotto doesn't simmer anymore. Stir in the Parmesan and butter to give the risotto a nice, creamy finish. Spoon it immediately into heated shallow serving bowls.

RISOTTO WITH PUMPKIN, GINGER AND SAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, toss the seeds, oil and salt together. Spread the seeds on a cookie sheet and toast in oven for 15 minutes. Cool until crisp. Set aside.
• In large sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and, when warm, add the leeks, pumpkin or squash, and ginger and sauté for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the water or stock in a pot and season with salt and pepper if needed; keep warm over a low flame.
• In the sauté pan, stir in the sage and rice. Once the rice starts to become translucent, add the white wine and stir. Cook until the wine is all absorbed; then add the stock ladle by ladle, being sure the liquid is absorbed before adding the next ladle, and stirring frequently. Continue until the rice is al dente, about 20 to 25 minutes.
• Add the butter and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, for 1 to 2 minutes, then stir in the cheese. Turn off the heat and let the risotto rest, uncovered, for 3 minutes before serving.
• Add sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Serve sprinkled with parsley and toasted pumpkin seeds.

ROAST PUMPKIN AND FETA RISOTTO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush a baking dish with olive oil.
• Place pumpkin in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm. Transfer pumpkin to baking dish, and brush with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Bake in preheated oven until golden brown.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a saucepan. Cook onion and garlic until tender. Stir in rice, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add vegetable broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and allowing all the liquid to be absorbed before adding more broth. Continue cooking until the rice is tender to the tooth, and then season with salt and pepper to taste.
• When the pumpkin is almost done, place feta on a baking sheet, and bake in preheated oven until the cheese is hot, and is beginning to melt along the edges.
• Mash 1/2 of the pumpkin, and stir into the risotto with the spinach. Ladle risotto into bowls, and top with remaining pumpkin cubes and heated feta.

PUMPKIN RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Chop up the pumpkin or squash into 1.5cm cubes (kids- ask for help if it's slippery). Put it on a baking tray, drizzle over some oil, then roast for 30 mins.
• While the pumpkin is roasting, you can make the risotto. Put the garlic in a sandwich bag, then bash lightly with a rolling pin until it's crushed.
• Cut up the spring onions with your scissors.
• Heat 1 tbsp oil with the butter in your pan over a medium heat - not too hot. Add the spring onions and garlic. Once the onions are soft but not getting brown, add the rice and cumin. Stir well to coat in the buttery mix for about 1 min.
• Now add half a cup of the stock, and stir every now and then until it has all disappeared into the rice. Carry on adding and stirring in a large splash of stock at a time, until you have used up all the stock - this will take about 20 mins.
• Check the rice is cooked. If it isn't, add a splash more stock, and carry on cooking for a bit. Once the rice is soft enough to eat, gently stir in the grated cheese, chopped coriander and roasted pumpkin.
