Serves 4
Boiled Eggs with Polenta
Method
- In a medium saucepan simmer milk and rosemary for 3-4 minutes. Remove rosemary and discard. Whisk in polenta and cook over a medium heat for 3 minutes or until thickened, whisking continuously. Stir in butter and parmesan cheese.
- Spread polenta evenly into a baking paper lined shallow 18cm x 28cm baking tray. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until firm. Cut polenta into chips. Heat extra butter and oil in a large non stick frypan over medium-high heat. Add polenta chips and cook for approximately 1-2 minutes on each side or until browned. Drain and keep warm.
- Spray mushrooms with oil and place on a baking paper lined tray. Add pancetta and cook in a preheated oven at 200°C for 5 minutes or until mushrooms are softened and pancetta is crisp. Set aside and keep warm.
- Cook frozen peas and spinach in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and mash/puree with some of the fetta oil, season well. Gently fold through half the crumbled fetta.
- Arrange mushrooms on serving plates, spill with pea mixture. Add polenta chips and serve with soft boiled egg, extra crumbled fetta and pancetta shards. Garnish with rosemary.
