Tools needed

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 392° F (200°C). Cut the pumpkin into cubes and chop the onion.
  2. Put the pumpkin cubes and garlic in a baking dish with a little olive oil and pinch of salt and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
  3. Sauté the chopped onion with a splash of olive oil in a pan until translucent. Add the rice and white wine. Allow the risotto rice to absorb the wine. After all the wine is absorbed, add a ladle of vegetable broth. Allow to absorb while stirring occasionally. Continue until the risotto has cooked gently for around 20 minutes.
  4. In the meantime, sauté the sage in a little oil until crispy.
  5. Put the pumpkin cubes, garlic and goat cheese in a food processor or blender and process until a smooth puree forms.
  6. Grate the Parmesan cheese. Stir the pumpkin puree into the risotto rice and add 1.05 oz. (30 g) of the Parmesan cheese and the salt.
  7. Spoon the risotto onto a plate and top with the pumpkin seeds and sautéed sage. Grate the remaining Parmesan cheese on top. Bon appetit!
