    Ingredients

    400 g leftover saffron risotto
    500 g pumpkin
    200 g Grana Padano
    2 eggs
    1 shallot
    breadcrumbs
    frying oil
    salt
    pepper

    Preparation

    STEP 1

    Dice the pumpkin and cook it in a non-stick pan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, ½ cup water and chopped shallot. When the pumpkin is soft, place it in a bowl and purée with an immersion blender, adding grated Grana Padano and seasoning with salt and pepper, until smooth.

    STEP 2

    Using your hands, form the rice into balls about 5-6 cm in diameter, make a hole with your finger and insert a spoon of pumpkin purée, then close the ball and reshape it carefully.

    STEP 3

    Coat the rice balls in beaten egg, then breadcrumbs, and fry in plenty of oil.
    Serve warm.
