Chilli & Cheese Cornbread (With Polenta) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    175 g polenta
    125 g plain flour
    2 tablespoons brown sugar (I use demerera)
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon salt (although it works fine without, in my opinion)
    300 ml milk (I use semi-skimmed)
    2 eggs
    60 g butter (or marg. melted)
    1 red chili pepper (I use medium-hot ones)
    250 g grated cheese (pick your fave!)
Preparation
    Pre-heat the oven to 200c/400f.
    Mix the polenta, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
    Add the milk, eggs and butter to the dry ingredients and mix well until they become a batter.
    Core and de-seed the chilli and chop it finely. Grate the cheese and add it to the batter with the chilli.
    Grease a 7 inch baking tin (I use 1 cal spray) and pour the mixture into the tin.
    Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden.
    Yum, yum!
