What you will need
Risotto Ingredients
- 350g Riso Gallo Carnaroli Rice or Arborio
- 125ml white wine (1 glass)
- 85g butter
- 50g Grated Parmesan
- 1 small onion diced
- 800ml Low salt veg stock or Chicken Stock
- 1 Butternut Squash (peeled, and cubed small)
- 150g Chorizo diced
- 30g Scotts Gf Steak Onions
Easy Hot Honey Glaze ingredients
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
- 1 Tbsp Siricha Sauce
- 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp of Crushed Chilli Flakes
How to prepare:
Add your squash in a saucepan, fill with water and cover, bring to a boil, and steam squash until tender, 15-20 minutes until soft, drain and blend to smooth set to side
In a dry pan place your chorizo and cook for 5-6 mins, add in a few tablespoons of your hot honey to glaze and set to side
Dice up your onion and add to a pan with a touch of olive oil and tsp of butter and cook until soft (5-6 mins).
Toast your Carnaroli Rice on a low heat in a dry pan for 2-3 mins, this will not only release that nutty flavour but will prevent the break down of the rice during the cooking process.
Add your white wine to the pan and turn up the heat to medium and stir until the wine has evaporated. Add one ladle of your stock at a time as it soaks into your rice. Around the 10 minute mark add your Squash puree.
Continue to cook for a further 17/18 mins. Remove the Risotto from the heat and add in your cheese, butter and top with your Hot Honey Chorizo, Crispy onions and sage.
Easy Hot Honey Glaze Method
Place all ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir to combine and heat until the mixture comes to a boil. Boil for 4 minutes, swirling the pan occasionally. Remove from heat.
