POLENTA CAKES
Preparation:
1. Make the Polenta.
2. If you’re not using leftover polenta, line a baking dish with plastic wrap, or grease the sides of the dish with butter or olive oil.
3. Pour the freshly made hot polenta into a baking dish or sheet pan that will allow you to spread out the hot polenta to about 1/2-3/4 inch thickness. Spread the top evenly, allow to cool, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm.
4. Slice into rectangles or squares, or cut into portions with a cookie/biscuit cutter. Pan-fry in a cast iron or nonstick pan with a little olive oil until brown on both sides. (2-3 minutes on a hot skillet)
