• Preheat oven to 240ºC/220ºC fan-forced. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 5-6 minutes. • Add arborio rice and garlic & herb seasoning, stirring, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add vegetable stock powder and the water. Bring to the boil, then remove pan from heat. Transfer risotto to a baking dish. • Cover tightly with foil and bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is ‘al dente’, 28-32 minutes.

• Meanwhile, thickly slice leek. • Place leek and peeled pumpkin pieces on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Spread out evenly, then roast until tender and brown around edges, 12-15 minutes.

• Remove risotto from oven and stir through the butter, roasted veggies, basil pesto, baby leaves and a drizzle of white wine vinegar. • Stir through a splash of water to loosen risotto if needed. Season to taste.

• Divide homestyle pumpkin and leek risotto between bowls. • Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
