Rosemary Parmesan Polenta image

This recipe came from our local grocery store (Festival Foods). I made it for the family and it was a hit. I always make enough for two dinners worth. On the first night, I serve it soft. The leftovers I chill then fry in butter. For fried polenta, you can make this recipe up to two days in advance. Just keep in the fridge until ready to fry & serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my polenta turned out lumpy. I'll have to try it again.

My polenta didn't turn out as creamy as I would have liked. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

The polenta was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

I'm not a big fan of rosemary, so I used thyme instead. It was still very good.

The polenta was a bit too dry for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the polenta and it was delicious!
