Ingredients

  • 1.25 l Water
  • 250 gram Corn Grits
  • 3 gram Salt
  • 50 gram Parmesan freshly grated
  • Spices salt and pepper
  • 40.5 gram Olive Oil
  • 1 gram Rosemary dried

Instructions

  • Start by making the polenta – this will later become the delicious and crispy fries.
  • Pour the water into a pot and bring it to a boil.
  • Add the cornmeal and salt to the boiling water.
  • Cook the porridge, stirring constantly, for about 10 minutes until the consistency is creamy.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and add 25 grams of freshly grated Parmesan cheese to the polenta. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour the porridge into a dish greased with oil and let it set in the refrigerator for at least two hours (or overnight).
  • Cut the set polenta into long fries and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
  • Brush the fries with olive oil and season them with salt, pepper, and rosemary. Sprinkle the remaining 25 grams of Parmesan on top.
  • Bake the polenta fries in the oven at 210°C (convection) for about 35 minutes. Take them out when they are golden and crispy.
  • Serve immediately!
