The ingredients for Polenta Fries are:

(3 1/4) cups cold water
(1) cup coarse polenta
(3/4) tsp salt
(1/2) cup grated Parmesan (I used our good house brand, nothing too high-end, but not Kraft)
2 tablespoons butter or coconut butter
olive oil for brushing

Here is how you make Polenta Fries:

Brush an 8-inch square baking dish with oil. Combine water, polenta, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a heavy medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking. Once the polenta boils, reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring here and there with a wooden spoon until thick , about 15-20 minutes, ensuring the heat is low enough that it doesn?t stick or burn to the bottom.Stir in cheese and butter until incorporated, then transfer polenta to the baking dish, spreading evenly with a dampened rubber spatula. Chill, uncovered, until set, about 45 minutes. This can be done well in advance, even up to a day (which is what I did), just cover it in foil after it?s cooled and it will be good for days.To cook, heat the oven broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil and brush (very lightly) with oil, or you can do this without the foil.Remove the polenta from the pan, and place on a work surface. With a sharp knife, cut into one inch sticks (I got about 22 fries). Place the fries oil side down on the oiled pan or foil, and brush the tops with oil and space evenly on the baking sheet. Broil about 4 inches from heat until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Flip over carefully and broil a further 5 minutes on the other side until crispy and golden. Remove from the oven and let cool a little.Serving Size: Makes 22 pieces about 5 pieces per servingNumber of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user MEDUSA1977.
