Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
14 ounces low sodium vegetable broth -- or 1 3/4 cups homemade
1 1/4 cups water
3/4 cup quick-cooking polenta
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
3/4 cup already-shredded Parmesan cheese -- (3 ounces)
In a medium stockpot, bring the broth and water to a boil over high heat,
preferably on a back burner as the polenta sputters. Slowly add the polenta,
stirring constantly with a long handled wooden spoon. Reduce the heat to medium
and add the oil, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture
is the consistency of cream of wheat, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and
immediately add the cheese, stirring until thoroughly combined.
If serving as a first-course soup, ladle equal portions into soup bowls and
serve at once. If serving as a side dish, let stand, uncovered, about 5
minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture is the consistency of mashed
potatoes. Transfer to a warm serving bowl and serve at once.
Makes 6 servings.
Per serving: Cals 201 (22% fat); Total Fat 5g (sat fat 2g); Carbs 28g; Fiber
4g; Prot 10g; Chol 7mg; Sodium 321mg.
"Depending on its consistency, this rustic, porridgelike dish can be served as
a side dish in lieu of mashed potatoes or as an unusual first-course soup.
Either way, it's delicious. Vegan soy Parmesan cheese substitutes are
definitely not recommended here."
