Easy Fried Polenta Recipe

Step 1

Combine all the ingredients in a large sauce pan. Slowly bring to a boil.

Step 2

Once boiling, stir often for 4-5 minutes to keep the mixture from burning on the bottom. The polenta will thicken as you cook: you are aiming for a thick porridge consistency.

Step 3

Pour the hot mixture into a large dish so that it is about 1 1/2 inches thick. Let cool completely to set (you can even leave this overnight in the fridge).

Step 4

Once cooled and set, cut into small squares, about 2" across. Place into heated pan with 1 tsp of olive oil. Sear each side for 1-2 minutes, until slightly golden.
