Ingredients

  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup polenta - this is corn meal
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 2 Tbsp heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup parmigiano reggiano grated

Instructions

  • Bring the chicken stock to a boil.
  • Add the cornmeal slowly, stirring constantly. Slowly! You don't want lumps.
  • Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring every few minutes, until the texture turns creamy. This takes around 30 minutes. Dig into the corners of the pot when you stir.
  • Remove from heat. Mix in butter, cream and cheese.
  • Serve quickly. Polenta waits for no-one.
