Method:
-
Bring 600ml/1 pint salted water to the boil in a
heavy saucepan. Trickle in the polenta, beating
continuously, then cook gently for 15-20 minutes,
stirring occasionally, until the mixture is no
longer grainy and comes away from the sides of the
pan.
-
Remove the pan from the heat and beat in the butter,
herbs and plenty of pepper.
-
Pour the polenta into small pudding basin, smooth
the surface and leave until cold and firm.
-
Turn out the polenta on to a board and cut into
thick slices. Brush the polenta slices with melted
butter and grill each side for about 4-5 minutes,
until golden brown.
-
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add
the garlic and peppers and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes.
Stir in the balsamic vinegar and seasoning.
-
Spoon the pepper mixture over the polenta slices and
garnish with fresh herb sprigs. Serve hot.
