Pumpkin and Sweet Potato Risotto [ and hello from a new member ]

[Guest guest]

Hello all

Newbie here

Thought I might as well dive in with one of my standards

The beauty about this 'risotto' is that there's almost no stirring and

it's infinitely variable.

 

2 cups arborio rice

5 cups vegetable stock

half teaspoon cracked black pepper

teaspoon crushed garlic

tablespoon non-dairy margarine [ optional ]

2 cups diced pumpkin [ more or less ]

1 cup diced sweet potato [ again more or less ]

1 sliced leek [ optional ]

a good handfull [ more or less ] of grated tasty cheese or soy cheese

1 - 2 cups of washed baby spinach leaves

 

Preheat oven to 200C [390F]

Put everything except the cheese and spinach into a large oven proof

casserole dish and bake for 25 minutes.

Stir

Return to oven for another 25 minutes.

Remove and stir through cheese and spinach

Serve with salad and a crusty loaf.

 

cheers
