Curried Pumpkin Risotto


1. Melt butter in large sauce pot.

2. Add shallots and red pepper.

5. Keep warm.

6. Add rice to red pepper mixture, cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

7. Add wine, stirring until liquid is almost gone.

8. Add cumin and curry powder, stirring through until well blended.

9. Over medium heat, begin adding pumpkin/broth liquid, about 1/2 cup at a time.

10. Stir until liquid is almost gone, then add the next 1/2 cup.

11. Continue until the pumpkin broth is gone and rice is tender, or even slightly al dente if you like.

12. This can take about 20 to 30 minutes.

13. When just a small bit of the last addition of broth is left, add evaporated milk, stirring to blend, and continue to cook for about 3 more minutes, stirring constantly.
