Preparation method

Preparing and Frying the Polenta

1

Bring 800 ml of lightly salted water to a boil in a saucepan. While stirring constantly, slowly pour in 200 g of cornmeal, then cook over low heat, stirring frequently, for about 10-15 minutes until thick.

2

Smooth the warm polenta onto a small baking sheet or tray lined with baking paper to a thickness of about 1.5–2 cm, and let it cool completely and set (about 20 minutes).

3

Cut the set polenta into bite-sized cubes, about 2x2 cm. Heat 20 ml of extra virgin olive oil in a pan, toss the polenta cubes in it, and fry on all sides until golden brown and crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Drain on paper towels after frying.

Chef's tip

You can also cook the polenta the night before and let it set in the refrigerator; when cold, it is even easier to cut into neat, uniform cubes.

If you want an even crispier texture, you can also bake the polenta cubes in a convection oven preheated to 200 °C for 20 minutes.
