Introducing: Creamy Butternut Squash Risotto

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share with you a warm and comforting fall recipe that is perfect for cozy nights in or elegant dinner parties. This creamy butternut squash risotto is a delightful blend of savory and sweet flavors that will surely impress your guests or simply satisfy your own cravings for something deliciously seasonal.

Ingredients:

• butternut squash (500g, diced)
• arborio rice (300g)
• onion (1, finely chopped)
• garlic cloves (2, minced)
• vegetable broth (1 liter)
• white wine (1 cup)
• butter (50g)
• parmesan cheese (100g, grated)
• fresh parsley (for garnish)
• salt and pepper (to taste)

Kitchen Tools:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• large saucepan
• wooden spoon
• grater

To start, heat a large saucepan over medium heat and melt the butter. Add in the chopped onions and garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant. Next, stir in the arborio rice, allowing it to toast slightly before deglazing the pan with the white wine.

Once the wine has been absorbed, begin ladling in the vegetable broth a cup at a time, stirring frequently until the rice is creamy and al dente. This process should take about 20-25 minutes. In a separate pan, roast the diced butternut squash until tender and caramelized.

When the risotto is ready, fold in the roasted butternut squash and grated parmesan cheese, allowing the flavors to meld together. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color.

This creamy butternut squash risotto weighs approximately 1500 grams once cooked and serves about 4 people. Each serving is around 375 grams with an estimated calorie count of 400. For an extra special touch, try adding a sprinkle of crispy sage leaves on top before serving.

I hope you give this unique twist on a classic risotto a try and enjoy every bite. Feel free to experiment with different herbs or cheeses to make it your own. Happy cooking!
