The Perfect Polenta

Cook Time 15 minutes

Serves 4

Ingredients

1L beef stock

1 cup instant polenta

30g butter

½ cup finely grated Parmesan

Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

Bring the stock to a gentle boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to medium-low and slowly whisk in the polenta in a steady stream to prevent lumps.

Continue whisking for 2–3 minutes, then stir with a wooden spoon until the polenta is thick and creamy. 

Stir through the butter and Parmesan until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to serve.
