Crispy polenta with chives and garlic

Crispy Polenta with chives and garlic

Wonderful stuff

Ingrediants

21/2 cups of quick cook polenta ( merchant organic is great )
1 cup Unsweetened Soymilk
1 teaspoon Sea Salt
8 cloves of garlic grated
bunch of chives finely chopped
2 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp ground black pepper
Enough olive oil for frying

Nice and thick polenta
Method

1.In the sauce pan, combine everything, except the Soya milk.
2.Bring contents to a boil, whisking constantly for 2 minutes. Add the soya milk and stir with a wooden spoon with a long handle as it will spit like larva. For about another 2 minutes. Wait until its thick and hand to stir. Taste now and see if it needs more salt and pepper.
3. Line a baking tray with foil and spray with oil. Pour the polenta in and smooth it flat all the way upto the edges. I made mine about an inch high.
4. Leave to cool in the fridge. Once ready and fully cooled cut into triangles or circles.
5. Put some oil in the frying pan about a tablespoon and fry the polenta on both sides until golden brown and crispy. Drain on a kitchen cloth or kitchen paper.
