Method:

1. Heat the water and the milk
in a saucepan and add about
10ml salt. Add the polenta
as soon as the milk mixture
comes to the boil and beat
with a whisk until the texture
is smooth. Reduce the heat
and stir it for about 20 minutes
using a wooden spoon, until
thick and cooked through (it
will start coming away from
the sides of the saucepan
once cooked).

2. Stir in the butter, black
pepper and cheese and turn
the polenta out into a wet
roasting tin. Spread out an even
layer of polenta using a wooden
spoon and leave it to stand until
set and cool.

3. Cut the polenta into slices,
slabs, fingers or wedges. Place
it on a greased baking sheet,
sprinkle extra Parmesan cheese
on top, if you prefer, and place
it under a hot grill until heated
through. You can also grill the
polenta over the coals or in a
hot griddle pan ? just grease
it very well with oil so that the
polenta does not stick to the
pan or the braai grid.
