Steps:
- Wash, trim, dry and slice mushrooms (use food processor); peel and mince garlic.
- Heat 3 teaspoons of oil in a large nonstick pan. Add the mushrooms and garlic. Saute until the mushrooms begin to brown, stirring occasionally.
- Chop onion in food processor. Heat the remaining oil in a small nonstick pan and saute the onion until it begins to soften and brown.
- Shuck corn and steam for about 3 minutes.
- Scrub, trim and slice zucchini in food processor.
- Wash and chop oregano and add with the zucchini to the mushrooms and continue cooking over medium heat, five or six minutes, until zucchini is crisp but tender.
- Bring water to boil for polenta, following package directions.
- Wash, trim and slice the tomatoes in the food processor and add to onion; simmer until the rest of the dish is ready.
- Coarsely grate the cheese.
- Slowly add polenta to the boiling water and stir until mixture begins to thicken. It is ready when water is almost completely absorbed. Remove from heat and stir in half of the cheese. Then spoon immediately into large shallow baking dish, about 10 by 15 inches, and spread evenly.
- Remove enough corn from cob to make 2 cups and stir into zucchini mixture. Spoon over polenta and top with tomato sauce; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Either serve immediately or run under broiler (do not preheat) for a couple of minutes. Just before serving, sprinkle with parsley.

POLENTA WITH VEGETABLE TOMATO SAUCE
Polenta is a versatile ingredient. If you're not familiar with it, it's from northern Italy. Soft and creamy, it's made of coarsely ground corn. It brings this simple vegetable recipe to the next level. After it's fried, the crunchy edges and soft center pairs well with the robust tomato sauce and vegetable medley. Full of...

Steps:
- 1. Cut zucchini in half, then cut in half again. Slice in diagonal pieces. Add to a large bowl. Dice plum tomatoes. Add to zucchini to the bowl. Add sliced mushrooms. Add 1/2 the sliced green onions saving 1/2 for topping. Set aside.
- 2. Remove the wrapper from the polenta tube and slice into 1/4 inch slices.
- 3. Add your favorite marinara or tomato sauce to a large saucepan, heating to medium, but do not boil.
- 4. In a large skillet, heat olive oil to medium-high. Add polenta slices to skillet, not overcrowding. Saute on both sides till lightly browned. Set the first batch aside on a warmed plate and place it in 200-degree oven to keep warm.
- 5. Add all the vegetables to tomato sauce, turn the heat down to medium-low. Stir occasionally. Add salt, pepper, and Italian Seasoning. You want to heat the vegetables, not cook them. Taste for the possible addition of more salt and pepper or Italian seasoning and be sure they are heated through.
- 6. Finish sauteing the polenta. Remove the heated plate of polenta from the oven and add this batch to it.
- 7. Depending on how many polenta slices you have, measure out on 4 plates. Top with a large spoonful of vegetable mixture. Top that with the remaining green onions and the chopped cilantro measured out for 4 plates. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the plate. We like this with a salad and crusty bread for accompaniment.
BAKED POLENTA WITH TOMATO SAUCE AND RICOTTA
I turn to polenta when I am in need of some good, old-fashioned comfort food. I suspect it's because there is not much difference between polenta and the grits I was raised on in North Florida. This simple dish relies once again on my favorite tomato sauce and not much else other than freshly cooked polenta made better than ever with a little added ricotta.

Steps:
- To prepare the tomato sauce:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the tomatoes, yellow onion, and garlic in a baking pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until the garlic is soft and the skin is peeling away from the tomatoes. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature. Remove the skin from the tomatoes and put in a saucepan. Squeeze the garlic out of the bulb and into the tomatoes. Remove the skin from the onion. Coarsely chop the onion and add to the tomatoes.
- Add the olive oil to the tomatoes and puree with a handheld immersion blender until smooth. You may need to add up to 1/3 cup water if there is not enough liquid. Season with salt. Warm the tomato sauce just prior to use.
- To prepare the polenta:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a medium saucepan, bring 3 cups of water to a simmer and stream in the polenta. Whisk together until there are no lumps. Cover with a lid and continue to cook over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring every 3 minutes. Be careful when you go to stir the polenta-it tends to spit out pieces of the cornmeal, which is very hot. Remove the polenta from the heat and stir in the olive oil and basil. Drop in teaspoon-size pieces of the ricotta cheese. Pour the polenta into an 8-inch square baking pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and let sit for 1 hour or until the polenta has firmed up. Bake the polenta in the oven for 15 minutes or until heated through. Cut the polenta into 8 equal pieces.
- To serve:
- Place 1/2 cup warm tomato sauce in 4 shallow bowls and top with two pieces of the polenta. Sprinkle with the chopped basil.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350°F or 180°C.
- Pour 3 cups of cold water into a saucepan and turn the heat up to high.
- Add 1 cup polenta/ cornmeal gradually, stirring until it is all mixed in.
- Stir in the paprika and nutmeg.
- Heat until boiling, then simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. NB: The polenta may spit if not stirred so be careful!
- When the polenta has thickened at the end of the 2 minutes, remove from the heat. Line a loaf pan with cling film/ saran wrap and pour the polenta in
- Allow to cool, then refrigerate for 2 hours until solid.
- Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet and cook the onion and garlic, stirring, for 3 minutes until soft.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and fresh basil. Season with salt and pepper to taste then simmer for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, turn the polenta onto a chopping board and remove the cling film. Cut it into about 18 squares. Slices can also be used if they fit your baking tray better.
- Pour a third of the tomato sauce into a baking tray, top with half the polenta squares. Repeat the layers ending with sauce (alternatively I use a large shallow baking tray so I use a single layer of polenta squares with tomato sauce underneath and poured over the top).
- Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, sprinkle the cheese over the top and return to the oven for 5 minutes until the cheese has melted.

Broil vegetables about 4 inches from heat until tender and slightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a platter. Combine all sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Sprinkle polenta with remaining 1/3 cup Parmesan. Broil polenta in pie plate until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then cut polenta into 8 triangles. Divide polenta among 4 plates. Top with vegetables, drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with chives.
