My entire family loves this recipe. A quick baked polenta topped with red sauce. Very easy to make and great the next day too (and the day after that!) Top with additional Parmesan cheese if you like.

Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups milk
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup Parmesan cheese
2 cups spaghetti sauce, or your favorite recipe

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9 inch square baking dish.
  • In a large pot, combine the milk and chicken stock. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When it is at a rolling boil, gradually whisk in the cornmeal, making sure there are no lumps. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring constantly until thick, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese.
  • Pour the polenta into the prepared baking dish, and spread spaghetti sauce over the top.
  • Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until sauce is bubbling.

Time 2h40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups water
1 cup quick-cook polenta (yellow cornmeal)
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large red onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 (14 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes (14oz=400g)
10 leaves fresh basil, finely chopped
salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup grated cheddar cheese (or mozzarella)
plastic wrap (saran wrap or cling film)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350°F or 180°C.
  • Pour 3 cups of cold water into a saucepan and turn the heat up to high.
  • Add 1 cup polenta/ cornmeal gradually, stirring until it is all mixed in.
  • Stir in the paprika and nutmeg.
  • Heat until boiling, then simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. NB: The polenta may spit if not stirred so be careful!
  • When the polenta has thickened at the end of the 2 minutes, remove from the heat. Line a loaf pan with cling film/ saran wrap and pour the polenta in
  • Allow to cool, then refrigerate for 2 hours until solid.
  • Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet and cook the onion and garlic, stirring, for 3 minutes until soft.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes and fresh basil. Season with salt and pepper to taste then simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, turn the polenta onto a chopping board and remove the cling film. Cut it into about 18 squares. Slices can also be used if they fit your baking tray better.
  • Pour a third of the tomato sauce into a baking tray, top with half the polenta squares. Repeat the layers ending with sauce (alternatively I use a large shallow baking tray so I use a single layer of polenta squares with tomato sauce underneath and poured over the top).
  • Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven, sprinkle the cheese over the top and return to the oven for 5 minutes until the cheese has melted.

  • To make the polenta: Lightly grease a 10-inch round pan; set aside. Heat butter and oil in a large pot or dutch oven over medium heat until butter is melted. Add garlic and cook until light golden brown, about 4 minutes. Discard garlic. Add water, salt, and pepper to butter mixture. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to boil. Whisking constantly, add cornmeal in slow, steady stream. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook, whisking frequently and scraping sides and bottom of pot, until mixture is thick and cornmeal is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove dutch oven from heat and whisk in parmesan cheese. Transfer to prepared pan and let cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely chilled, at least 3 hours.
  • To make the salsa verde: Place parsley, olive oil, capers, anchovies, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, and lemon zest in work bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Pulse until parsley is well chopped, about 10 1-second pulses, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as necessary.Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a small serving bowl.
  • Light one chimney full of charcoal. When all charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and spread the coals evenly over entire surface of coal grate. Set cooking grate in place, cover grill and allow to preheat for 5 minutes. Clean and oil the grilling grate. Remove polenta from pan and cut into 8 equal slices. Brush slices on both sides with olive oil and place on grill. Cook until polenta develops grill marks and lightly browns, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Transfer polenta to a serving platter and top with diced tomatoes and salsa verde. Serve immediately.
