Polenta

Basic polenta recipe

1. Heat the milk in a saucepan over a medium heat.
2. Add a pinch of salt and the thyme and stir in the polenta until it begins to thicken.
3. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter.
4. Season again if necessary.

Fruity version with mango

1. For the fruity version, fold in the mango cubes or use as a garnish. This gives the creamy polenta a slightly sweet note and makes a tasty combination with hearty meat dishes.

Spicy polenta casserole with Parmesan cheese

1. For a spicy casserole, stir about 30 g of grated Parmesan into the polenta instead of the mango, pour the mixture into a greased casserole dish and gratinate in the oven at 170°C using the grill function for about 10 minutes.
