Ingredients (serves 4)

 
3 tbsp olive oil
1 small-ish butternut squash, chopped into small pieces
2 leeks, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Small handful fresh sage leaves, roughly chopped
350g risotto rice
200ml white wine
800ml vegetable stock, hot
25g butter
50g vegetarian Parmesan, grated
100g goat’s cheese, crumbled

Method

 
1. Place the butternut squash in a roasting tin with 2 tbsp of the oil. Roast in the oven until browned at the edges – you can do this in advance of needing it if you wish.

2. Heat the oil in a heavy-based pan over a medium heat. Add the leek and fry until slightly soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more, before adding the rice and stirring for another 1-2 minutes.

3. Turn up the heat, add the wine and bubble for a few minutes to cook off the alcohol. Add the stock, a ladleful at a time, waiting until each one is absorbed before adding the next.

4. Take the risotto off the heat and stir in the butter, the Parmesan and the goat’s cheese.
