TUNISIAN WINTER SQUASH PUREE
This is one of many North African spicy cooked vegetable purees typically served as a starter. The authentic dish is seasoned with harissa, the spicy hot pepper paste used widely in Tunisia and Algeria. If you can get hold of harissa easily, substitute 1 teaspoon or more to taste for the cayenne. You can serve this as an hors d'oeuvre, side dish or salad.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Cover a baking sheet with foil and brush lightly with olive oil. Cut the squash in half, scoop out the seeds and stringy membranes, brush the cut sides with olive oil and lay cut side down on the foil-covered baking sheet. Bake 40 minutes, or until soft enough to pierce easily with a knife. Remove from the heat and allow to cool, then peel and mash with a fork, or puree in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the lemon or lime juice and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
- In a mortar and pestle, mash the garlic to a paste with the salt, and stir into the puree, along with the spices. Taste and adjust salt. Mound on a platter or in a wide bowl. Run a fork down the sides. Mix together the remaining lemon juice and olive oil and drizzle over the puree. Decorate with olives and serve with small lettuce leaves for scooping, and warm flat bread.

- Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion, sprinkle with salt and cook until it starts to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the pumpkin, stir to mix. Cover and sweat over a medium heat for 8 minutes, stirring from time to time, or until the pumpkin has started to soften.
- Add 4 cups of stock, bring to a boil and cover. Lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the pumpkin is soft. Add the rice, stir to mix and cook for 15 minutes. The pumpkin will have disintegrated and the rice just al dente. Add a little extra stock if it looks very thick. Stir in the Parmesan. Taste for salt
- While the rice is cooking, melt the butter in a small pan or skillet over a low flame. Do this slowly for the best results. When the butter has stopped foaming and is clear with nut-brown residue, add the garlic and cook until it is just golden. Remove, and turn up the heat a notch and add the shredded sage leaves. Cook until just crisp, about 2 minutes. Reserve half the leaves.
- Stir the butter mixture into the rice. Cover and let sit for 2 minutes. Add a little extra warm stock if the risotto looks dry – it should be a little soupy. Serve immediately sprinkled with the reserved sage leaves and a chunk of Parmesan to grate over the top.
