Cornmeal And Blue Cheese Squares - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 Tbsp. olive oil
    1 onion, chopped
    1 clove garlic, pressed
    6 c. water or chicken stock or a mixture
    3 sprigs parsley, finely chopped
    1/2 tsp. salt or to taste
    black pepper to taste
    2 c. coarse corn meal
    2 oz. Blue cheese, crumbled
    dash of Worcestershire sauce
Preparation
    Heat olive oil in a large pot.
    Add onion and garlic and saute on medium heat until onion begins to soften, about 2 minutes.
    Add liquid and bring to a boil.
    Turn heat to simmer and add parsley, salt and pepper.
    Slowly, in a thin stream, add cornmeal (sifting is even better).
    Stir constantly until thick.
    As cornmeal begins to pull away from sides of pan, add Blue cheese and Worcestershire sauce.
    Continue stirring to mix in the cheese.
    Total cooking should be about 20 minutes.
    Pour into greased 11 x 15-inch pan and spread evenly.
    Let rest 15 minutes.
    Cut into squares, diamonds or cutter shapes, if desired.
    Serve warm.
    Can be made ahead and reheated quickly under the broiler.
