Directions
Heat broth in a medium saucepan.

When butter foams, add onion.
Saute over medium heat until pale yellow.
Add pumpkin and mix well.
Add 1 or 2 ladles of broth, or enough to cover pumpkin mixture.
Cook uncovered over medium heat 10 minutes.
Stir in rice and 1 cup broth.
Continue cooking and stirring rice, adding broth a little at a time until rice is done, 15 to 20 minutes.
Rice should be tender but firm to the bite.
