Ingredients

  • 70 grams parmesan cheese
  • 100 grams tasty cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 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 garlic, parmesan cheese and cheddar cheese into the Thermomix bowl and grate on Speed 9, 10 seconds. Set aside in a seperate bowl.
  • Add the vegetable stock and heat for 8 minutes, Varoma, Speed 2.
  • Set the Thermomix to Varoma, 3 minutes, Speed 2 and slowly add the polenta through the MC hole (while the blades are turning) and replace the MC once done.
  • Add the butter, cheese and garlic cloves and salt and slowly increase to Speed 7 for 1 minute (if the Thermomix starts shaking, turn the Speed down and continue to increase slowly).
  • Working quickly, pour the mixture into your prepared baking tray and place a sheet of baking paper over the top before placing another tray on top to keep it flat. Place into the fridge for one hour to chill.
  • Pre-heat your oven to 200 degrees once the mixture is cold and cut into 'chip' size pieces. Place these onto a baking tray covered with baking paper and cook for 30 minutes or until crisp and 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.
