Cooking Steps

1
1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan forced. Place the peeled & chopped pumpkin on the lined oven tray. Cut the red onion into wedges, then add to the tray. Sprinkle with Nan's special seasoning. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

While the veggies are roasting, grate the zucchini.

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. Add the diced bacon and cook until golden, stirring until crisp, 6-7 minutes. Add the garlic & herb seasoning, zucchini, arborio rice, vegetable stock and water. Bring to the boil, then remove from the heat.

Transfer the risotto to a medium baking dish. Cover tightly with foil. Bake until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is ‘al dente’, 24-28 minutes.

TIP: 'Al dente' rice is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

While the risotto is baking, roughly chop the parsley. Zest the lemon to get a good pinch, then slice into wedges. Remove the risotto from the oven. Stir through the lemon zest, a squeeze of lemon juice, the baby spinach leaves, butter and grated Parmesan cheese. If needed, add a splash of water to loosen. Gently stir in the roasted veggies. Season to taste.
