Ingredients:
Makes 4 servings
Bring the stock to the boil and reduce to a low simmer. Ladle a little liquid into a small bowl. Add the saffron threads and leave to infuse.
Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the onion and garlic and cook gently for 5 minutes until softened. Add the pumpkin and rice and cook for a few more minutes until the rice looks transparent.
Pour in the wine and allow it to boil hard. When it is absorbed add a ladle of the stock and the infused saffron and liquid. Stir constantly until all the liquid is absorbed.
Gradually add a ladleful of stock at a time, allowing the rice to absorb the liquid before adding more and stir constantly.
Cook the rice for about 25-30 minutes, or until al dente. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, cover the pan, and leave to stand for 5 minutes.
To finish, stir in the pistachios and marjoram or oregano. Season to taste with a little salt, nutmeg and pepper, and sprinkle over a few extra marjoram or oregano leaves.
