Fennel, Borlotti Bean And Polenta Bake

Fennel, Borlotti Bean And Polenta Bake


1. First cook the polenta:.

2. Place water in large saucepan and bring to the boil. Mix the dry polenta with sage, parsley and parmesan. Gradually add this dry mix to the boiling water, whisking all the time to prevent lumps.

3. Lower the heat and simmer stirring frequently and cook for 10-15 minutes until the mixture thickens.

4. Spoon the polenta into a lined baking tray, flattening it with the back of a spoon to create a layer that is 2 cm deep. Place this tray in the fridge or cold place whilst you prepare the rest of the bake.

5. Heat low fat cooking spray in a large frying pan and add the onions, garlic and fennel and cook for 10 minutes add the remaining ingredients and stir well. Transfer mixture into a shallow baking dish. Cut the polenta into small triangles and arrange these on top of the veg. Sprinkle with a little more parmesan and bake in preheated oven at gas mark 4 until golden.
