Grilled Polenta Rounds With Avocado Salsa - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups chicken stock
    2 cups water
    1 cup polenta
    1/2 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
    1/2 red capsicum, seeded and finely chopped
    1/2 yellow pepper, seeded and finely chopped
    1/2 avocado, stone removed, peeled, finely chopped
    1/4 cup fresh coriander, finely chopped
    2 limes, juice of
Preparation
    Lightly grease and line an 18 x 28cm slice pan with baking paper.
    In a large saucepan, bring stock and water to boil. Gradually add polenta, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and cook, stirring 5-10 minutes until polenta thickens.
    Stir in cheese and season to taste.
    Spoon the polenta mixture into prepared pan, smoothing top. Cool, then chill for 3 hours or overnight.
    Once chilled, transfer polenta to a board. Using a 5cm round cutter, cut into 18 rounds.
    Preheat char-grill or barbecue on high. Grease lightly with oil. Char-grill rounds for 3-4 minutes each side, until polenta is crisp and browned.
    Meanwhile, to make the salsa, combine all the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and season to taste.
    Serve polenta topped with avocado salsa.
