Cooking Steps

1
  • Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Grease and line 2 x 20cm square baking tins. 
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the water, cooking cream and vegetable stock powder and bring to the boil over high heat.
  • Reduce heat to medium and slowly whisk in polenta, then cook, stirring, until smooth and thickened, 1-2 minutes.
2
  • Remove from the heat, stir in the butter, Parmesan cheese, salt and a good pinch of pepper, until melted. 
  • Pour the mixture into the baking tins and smooth the surface into 2cm thickness. 
  • Drizzle with olive oil and bake, until golden, 30-35 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
3
  • When polenta has 5 minutes remaining, thinly slice spring onion. 
4
  • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add diced bacon and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 6-7 minutes. 
  • Reduce heat to medium, and stir in onion chutney, the balsamic vinegar, brown sugar and the water (for the sauce - 1/4 cup for 2p and 1/2 cup for 4p). Cook until reduced, 2-3 minutes. 
5
  • Once the baked polenta has cooled slightly, remove from the tins and slice into fingers. 
6
  • Transfer polenta slices to a serving platter and sprinkle over spring onion. Serve with bacon jam. Enjoy!
