Steps to make Butternut squash risotto:

Chop the squash, put it on a baking tray add the sage leaves, few glubs of olive oil, cover it with tinfoil and in a preheated 200C oven bake it until soft. Roughly 25-30 minutes.
  2. Roughly chop the peeled carrot, onion and celery sticks. Place them in a large pan with the squash peel, add the bayleaves, peppercorn, 2 litres of cold water and a pinch of salt. Bring it to boil, after turn it down a little bit and cook it for another 30-35 minutes.
  3. When the broth and butternut squash are ready set them on side. Heat up a tablespoon of butter and add the washed rice. When it starts to sizzle add the vermouth. After a few minutes add half of the squash and sage leaves and start to add the broth bit by bit. Make sure you regularly stir it. Every time when the rice soaks up the liquid add some more.
  4. Repeat until the rice is cooked and finally add the rest of the squash and 2/3 of the parmesan and another spoon of butter. Cook them together for 3 more minutes. Serve it with the rest of the parmesan on the top.
