- 6 SERVINGS DAIRY-FREE
- In small saucepan, bring broth just to a simmer over medium-low heat.
- While broth is heating, coat large saucepan with nonstick cooking spray, heat pan over medium heat. Add in onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, till beginning to brown, about 5 min.
- Add in rice and stir constantly 1 minute. Add in wine and stir till almost completely absorbed, 1 minute. Add in 1/2 c. of warm broth to rice and cook, stirring constantly, till liquid is almost completely absorbed. Add in another 1/2 c. broth and cook, stirring constantly, till liquid is almost completely absorbed. Stir in squash and continue adding broth 1/2 c. at a time, making sure which most of the liquid is absorbed before adding more.
- Remove pan from heat when about 1/2 c. liquid remains. Start checking doneness by biting into a grain of rice- it should be hard but render.
- (Timing from first to last addition of broth is 25 to 30 min.) Stir in rosemary, Parmesan cheese if you like and salt and pepper. Serve warm.
