Ingredients

  • 70 grams parmesan cheese grated
  • 100 grams tasty cheese grated
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
  • 1250 mls vegetable stock
  • 250 grams polenta
  • 50 grams butter
  • pinch salt

Instructions

  • Line a 34cm x 24cm tray with baking paper and set aside until needed.
  • Place the vegetable stock into a large saucepan and bring to the boil on your cooktop.
  • Reduce to a medium heat and slowly add the polenta to the boiling water, whisking as you go.
  • Once all the polenta has been added, whisk for 3 – 4 minutes to cook.
  • Remove the saucepan from the cooktop and working quickly, add the grated tasty and parmesan cheese, crushed garlic, butter and salt and mix with a large spoon to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking tray and use the back of a spoon to spread and flatten before popping another piece of baking paper on top and carefully smoothing it further.
  • Place the tray into the fridge for one hour to chill until it’s completely cooled.
  • Preheat your oven to 200°C.
  • Once completely cooled, cut into ‘chip’ size pieces and transfer to two non-stick baking trays to cook for 25 – 30 minutes or until the Polenta Chips are golden.

Notes

You can freeze these Cheesy Polenta Chips, I prefer to freeze them after baking.
To reheat, place onto an oven tray and cook for 10-12 minutes at 190 degrees - fan forced.
This recipe can be doubled, you will need a second baking tray.
