Polenta, Cauliflower And Pea Fries - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup instant polenta
8 oz cauliflower florets, steamed and mashed
3/4 cup grated Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/3 cup olive oil

Preparation

Grease an 11 x 7 inch baking pan and line with parchment paper.
Place milk, 1 cup water and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan on high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium. Gradually add polenta in a thin, steady stream, whisking constantly, until smooth. Reduce heat to low.
Cook polenta, stirring, for 5-10 mins, until polenta comes away cleanly from side of pan. Stir in cauliflower, cheese and peas. Use a wet spatula to spread polenta into prepared pan, smoothing the top. Set aside to cool.
Cut polenta into 3-inch long fries. Heat oil in a skillet on high heat.
Cook polenta fries in batches for 3 mins each, turning often, until golden and crisp. Season with sea salt flakes.
