I love polenta. This low fat, salt and sugar wholegrain it’s so versatile that can be enjoyed with all kinds of meats but also vegetables or cheese.
When I was little, my grandma used to do it and serve it with fresh milk or home-made yogurt. Was one of my favourites 😋
For a creamy polenta I use a ratio of 5 parts of water to 1 part of polenta. Bring the water and 1 teaspoon salt to boil in heavy large saucepan and start gradually whisking in the polenta. Keep your eye on it, don’t lose sight as is very important to whisk constantly until mixture is smooth and begins to thicken. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until tender and thickened but still creamy, stirring often, about 10-15 minutes or until polenta is soft. Stir in butter and grated Parmesan cheese. Season to taste with salt if needed.
This time I’ve served it with chicken in tomato sauce.
Poor ingredients but wonderfully rich taste 😋
Looks yummy
It really is delicious 😋
I love polenta too! 🙂
Delicious 😋
I’ve never tried polenta. I see it on food shows all the time though.
Oh you need to try it! Is so delicious 😋 an goes well with a lot of dishes 😊
I honestly don’t know why we haven’t tried it yet. We cook a lot too.
Never is too late to try new things and new flavours 😉
I’ll put it on the menu!!
Mmm…Looks very yummy!😋😋
Thank you 😊 It really is 😋
Tasty homemade meals made from “poor” ingredients can be the most satisfying!
Oh very true! Poor ingredients but very tasty 😋 Will never disappoint us 😉
I have never heard of this, it looks so yummy. I will have to try this dish.
Polenta is a very poor but very tasty dish 😋

Kind of like grits?
Exactly. Polenta is made from ground yellow corn and grits are made from white corn 😊 So basically is the same only that has different colour ☺️
Sounds and looks delicious!
Thank you 😊It really is 😊😋
You’re welcome! 😊
Oh no you can’t keep doing! Hahah
Seems delicious 😀
It was really delicious 😋 😊 I think I should do it more often 😊😉
Unless you manage to send us some, please don’t do it hahha😂
😂😂 I think that even if I use express courier will not reach you ☺️ Too many people involved in the process of shipment and I’m afraid they’ll feel the great smell and will eat it before reaches you 😊😂😂
