Directions

  1. 1
    ["1. Heat the oven to 180\u00b0C.", "2. Put half the butternut squash and the chorizo slices in a roasting tin and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Roast for about 20 minutes. Take care to not let the chorizo burn (they become hard and chewy if this happens - you may need to remove the chorizo after about 15 minutes).", "3. Simmer the remaining squash in stock until softened. Tip the squash into a sieve, reserving any stock in a bowl below. Puree the squash (I used my trusty hand blender for this) and keep on the side.", "4. Melt the butter in a large pan and sweat the chopped onion for about 5 minutes.", "5. Tip in the rice and stir well into the onion. This step creates a \"shell\"" around each grain of rice
