First bake the pumpkin, cut into small chunks for about 20 minutes at 190C with a drizzle of olive oil. Once it’s cooked take half and blend it with some vegetable stock to create a smooth cream.
To a pan add the olive oil, then sauté the onion until translucent, 5/10 minutes. Add the rice and let it toast for a few minutes.
Add white wine and simmer until evaporated.
Start adding the vegetable stock, one ladle at a time. Add one, let it be absorbed and then add the next one.
When the rice is al dente, add the pumpkin cream and mix well. Add the remaining pumpkin pieces and continue cooking until cooked.
Turn off the heat, add some butter and let It melt while mixing. Season with salt, pepper and fresh rosemary. Serve and top with the caramelised onions!
