A lot of butternut squash risotto recipes call for roasting the squash first. Here, everything cooks in the same pot, which means the butternut squash kind of becomes the sauce too. While the squash is roasting, prepare the risotto. Bring the stock to the boil and keep on a low simmer.

Steps to make Butternut-squash Risotto:
  1. Preheat a saucepan over medium heat and cook the onion, butternut squash, garlic and the celery with the olive oil for about 5 to 7 minutes, meanwhile bring the broth to a simmer but do not let it boil otherwise it will reduce.
  2. Add rice to the onion mixture and cook for a minute. Coating it in the oil. Add the wine and cook for a couple of minutes until the wine has been absorbed by the rice.
  3. Add a ladleful of hot broth to the rice, stir constantly (use a wooden spoon) and continually adding broth 1 ladleful at a time, waiting for the rice to soak it all up before adding the next ladleful. Season with salt and pepper.Continue until the rice is about 5 minutes away from being cooked.
  4. When the rice is just about done, another ladleful of stock and the chopped sage, once the rice is fully cooked turn the heat off. (The consistency should be creamy and loose not stiff and dry.) With the heat off, add the butter and a good amount of parmiggiano reggiano. Taste for seasoning and enjoy!

We love risotto, it's one of those meals that make you feel like you're eating out in a fancy restaurant, or that you know you're way around the kitchen. When both butternut squash dishes were done, I honestly couldn't decide which one I liked more, so I sorta Risotto on its own is delicious enough: tender, delicious rice slow-cooked until the texture is. I didn't think it would be very good because that's just not how you make risotto. Risotto takes a bit of skill to master, but zero skill to start trying. It's one of those things that as soon as you do it right the first time, you'll.
