½ butternut squash
1 medium sized aubergine
3 garlic cloves
1 tsp thyme
½ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp salt

-Peel and cube sweet potatoes and squash, steam or boil till soft.

-Cube the aubergine (small)

-Combine the sweet potatoes and squash in a bowl with thyme, salt, cinnamon and the non dairy milk and blend until completely pureed.
-Put 1-2 Tbsp of olive in pan, when hot add the finely chopped garlic, fry for under a min and add the rice and the wine. leave 3 min while stirring and then add some stock.. keep stirring and adding stock for about 15 min then add aubergine and continue adding stock and stirring for another 15 min, once done mix in the puree ( you might not want to use all of it just add bit by bit as you stir it in and get it to your desired texture, remember that as it cools down it also dries up so if it seems a bit on the liquidy side its ok.
