Step-by-step

  1. Firstly, preheat the oven to 200°C . Peel and chop the squash and place in a roasting tray with some olive oil and dried chilli. Roast until golden, around 15-20 minutes.
  2. In a frying pan, add a small amount of oil and sweat off the onion (do not brown) for about 5-8 minutes, before adding the rice. Fry off for a few minutes and then add the wine and stir continually for 2-3 minutes. Gradually add in the vegetable stock, a ladle at a time whilst stirring, and add in the roasted squash. This will break up as you stir and cook the rice.
  3. After 15-18 minutes, when the rice is almost done (still with a bite - this is how the Italians like it!), remove from the heat and stir in the chopped sage, parmesan and butter. Leave to stand for a minute before serving.
