How To Make Fried Polenta
Crisp on the outside and soft on the center, this 4-ingredient fried polenta recipe offers a simple & easy side that's perfect with any sauce.
Ingredients
- 5 cups water
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cups corn meal
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients in a large sauce pan. Slowly bring to a boil.
-
Once boiling, stir often for 4 to 5 minutes to keep the mixture from burning on the bottom. The polenta will thicken as it cooks.
-
Pour the hot mixture into a large dish so that it is about 1½-inch thick. Let cool completely to set.
-
Once cooled and set, cut into small squares, about 2-inch across. Place into heated pan with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Sear each side for 1 to 2 minutes, until slightly golden.
-
Serve and enjoy.
