Calories: 336kcal
- 1 3/4 cups polenta flour
- 6 cups water
- 1 cup Parmeggiano
- 1 cup mozzarella
- Gorgonzola
- a pinch salt
- a pinch pepper
Preheat the oven to 350 F (180C).
Meanwhile, take a large saucepot, pour water or the veggie broth into the pot, and boil at high heat. Once it is boiling, gently and slowly whisk in the corn flour and a pinch of salt. Lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Try to stir almost all the time to avoid lumps and a burnt bottom of the pot.
Add some grated Parmigiano and mozzarella for taste.
Take a 9*13 inch baking tray and grease some butter on the inside of the tray. Pour polenta in and top over some gorgonzola.
Bake polenta for about 25 minutes. The smell in the kitchen should be fantastic due to the melting gorgonzola in the oven
Once baked, take it out of the oven and let it cool down for about 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
Enjoy.
