360 g of Carnaroli rice
1 shallot
1 tbsp of butter

To make the pumpkin risotto, first cut the pumpkin into cubes of 1 cm on each side and set aside. In a saucepan, brown the chopped shallot with a tablespoon of butter, then add the rice and toast it for 2 minutes.
Smoked with wine, let it evaporate, add a first ladle of broth and pumpkin. At this point, cook for 16-18 minutes gradually adding the broth, so that the rice is never too dry, and season with salt. Turn often with a wooden spoon.
When cooked, remove the rice from the heat and stir in the diced Bel Paese cheese and grated Parmesan. Serve the pumpkin risotto after letting it rest for a couple of minutes.
