Add to the pan and toast the rice so that it dampens the sauce, deglaze with white wine, pour a little ‘hot broth to cover the rice well and continue to cook.
Take the pumpkin kept aside and with the help of the immersion blender to reduce it to a puree and add to the rice, stirring occasionally.
Continue cooking, adding a little broth at a time, the rice should always dry before adding more broth.
