How to Make 7 Minute Rich And Creamy Polenta
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup half-and-half and 1 cup water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Gradually whisk in 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 cup coarse polenta, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
- Continue stirring continuously for 5-7 minutes, or until the polenta is thick, smooth, and pulls away slightly from the sides of the pan. Large bubbles will appear on the surface.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of butter, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese (or your preferred cheese), and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy your creamy, dreamy polenta!
