I simmered the cubed squash in a little milk with olive oil, salt and pepper.<br /><br />Cook the risotto as you normally would, starting with cubed pancetta then adding chopped leek (or onion) and garlic. Once these have sweated down add the rice and cook for a few minutes before starting to add your stock.<br /><br />When you're coming close to adding the last of the stock, add the squash puree. Once this is blended in add a table spoon of mascarpone. Once stock is absorbed, add some lemon juice to taste, remove from the heat, cover with a lid and set aside for a few minutes before serving. You could add some butter now if you like. And thats it!andyghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09606585466756124855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8376693003192814341.post-24419336280261319752009-11-22T18:23:12.310+00:002009-11-22T18:23:12.310+00:00Carrie girl .. my goodness and I thought I was the...Carrie girl .. my goodness and I thought I was the only one that felt that way ?
