I remember having the creamiest polenta in a gorgeous Italian restaurant in London many years ago and was always disappointed when I tried to cook it myself, until my sister-in-law told me the little secret of cooking it in milk and then baking it, well now it’s just so perfect every time! This version is topped with a rich pork sausage and cannellini bean sauce! It didn’t photograph very well but it tasted the bomb! This recipe is included in this months’ Palermo pantry pack, WhatsApp Diana 0767241632 for more info

Oil from sundried tomatoes
