After a day out in the cold there is nothing better than sinking your teeth into a hot crisp pumpkin risotto ball. The key is to cook the risotto until smooth and creamy, so the rice will just squish between your fingers. This recipe is perfect for entertaining as the balls can be rolled and breadcrumbed earlier in the day ready for cooking.
