Polenta!?!?!
How do you cook yours??
I want to do it tonight with our steak instead of mash. But, tasty and not plain. I was thinking something with either carmelised onions or mushrooms.
I read a recipe to add a packet of dried onion soup to it for something tasty.

I do mine the Jamie way. 1 cup polenta to 600mls of stock, then cook till soft. Then pour into a dish and top with sauted baby spinach (baby spinach, garlic, olive oil, salt & pepper) and slices of brie. Pop in the oven and cook till brie is melted and gooey.

I cook it as directed.
Then once its cooked add some butter, salt pepper and parmasen cheese.
That's my favourite way to have it and its easy.

Yea it looks easy as to cook....but I know if I dont add something tasty my boys wont eat it!!
Cai that sounds tasty.....how much spinach to the 1 cup of polenta??
-
I don't know exact amounts. I just saute a bag or so in a saute pan with garlic salt and pepper then arrange the spinach over the polenta in a dish then arrange the brie over that. Exact amounts don't really matter it will taste awesome. Just depends on how much you want :)

I do 4 cups of stock (I use Massel powdered stock) and add a box of frozen spinach. Let that boil together first, then add your polenta and stir like mad.
OR - do 3 cups of stock, then pour it into a baking dish and top with some ground pine nuts and garlic. Or parmesan, if you're cheesy.
OR - my other fave - add lemon myrtle to your stock, then serve it with lemon and garlic marinated baked field mushrooms.
