Step 1

In a medium pot, add the cornmeal along with the milk, water, salt and cinnamon stalk.

Step 2

Turn on the heat to medium, and keep stirring (I use a whisk).

Step 3

Cook the cornmeal until it thickens and has a porridge consistency (for around 10 minutes). Add the sugar, nutmeg, and vanilla extract and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove from heat, and serve in bowls topped with fruit and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
