Cornbread with polenta instructions
- Preheat over to 200°C. Mix polenta, flour, baking soda and salt..
- Crumble the cheese with a fork and add to the mixture. You don't have to crumble it to very small pieces, it tastes better if there are bigger pieces of cheese in the mixture..
- Beat an egg and add it to the mixture. Mix everything and start adding water. I never measure water, I just add it untill the mixture is the right consistency. It shouldn't be thick but also not too runny, somewhere in between is the perfect consistency..
- Pour the mix onto the baking pan lined with parchment paper. Bake until you see the lovely yellowish-golden color. You can also check if the cornbread is ready by piercing it with a knife, if the knife comes out clean it means it's ready.
- After you take it out from the oven cover it with a kitchen towel and let it cool for 10 minutes. Serve and enjoy!❤️.
- P.S. I baked it in a small round baking pan and it made 4 portions. I added regular homemade cow's milk cheese, but you can add feta cheese. If you add feta, make sure that you add less salt because feta is quite salty. Also, you will probably need about 100g of feta because it's stronger than the regular cheese 😊.
Cornbread mix has leavening in it (baking powder) so your polenta is going to -rise-, it will be a little spongy. Should I pre-cook it or use more liquid ingredients in the recipe? Milled corn products can look and even taste the same. But there subtle differences between them. Still, some manufacturers don't distinguish between grits and polenta, labeling them one and the same.
