ROSEMARY PARMESAN POLENTA



Rosemary Parmesan Polenta image

This recipe came from our local grocery store (Festival Foods). I made it for the family and it was a hit. I always make enough for two dinners worth. On the first night, I serve it soft. The leftovers I chill then fry in butter. For fried polenta, you can make this recipe up to two days in advance. Just keep in the fridge until ready to fry & serve.

POLENTA WITH PARMESAN AND OLIVE OIL-FRIED EGGS



Polenta With Parmesan and Olive Oil-Fried Eggs image

If you've ever decided that cold cereal is a good dinner, here's another, far better option. Soft and steaming, with plenty of salt and pepper mixed in and perhaps some grated cheese applied at the end, a bowl of polenta or grits is deeply satisfying and requires not much more than a pot and a spoon to prepare. And topping the buttery, cheesy polenta with eggs fried in olive oil makes for a dish that is far more elegant and luxurious than its simple ingredients would imply.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 1/2 cups low-sodium broth or water
1 1/2 cups polenta (not quick-cooking), coarse corn meal or corn grits
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 to 4 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, more to taste
1 1-ounce chunk or 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 large eggs
Coarse sea salt for garnish

  • Pile polenta into 4 bowls and top with cheese and then fried eggs. Garnish with sea salt and more pepper and serve.
