Thick Polenta Oven Chips (Fries) image

Crispy on the outside, soft and melting on the inside, these delicious snacks are a great alternative to regular chips or fries or served on their own perhaps with a tomato relish to accompany them. You can use any cup or mug to measure the ingredients, adjust salt accordingly

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups polenta (yellow cornmeal)
2 cups chicken stock or 2 cups vegetable stock
2 cups water
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
cooking cooking spray

Steps:

  • In a large pan bring the water and stock to a rolling boil.
  • Whisking constantly, add the polenta all at once in a steady stream.
  • Reduce the heat and cook stirring constantly for about 10 minutes or until really thick. Be careful as thick polenta tends to 'erupt' like a volcano if left unattended, keep stirring being careful not to burn the bottom.
  • Stir in the cheese and butter then season with salt.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, if you think it needs something then add it! I like finely chopped pickled jalapeño peppers personally.
  • If the polenta is really thick then it is ready to pour into a square dish lined with cling film.
  • Once cold it will be set and firm. Set the oven to 200C/400°F Turn out the polenta, remove cling film and cut into thick chips.
  • Arrange on a baking tray lined with foil and sprayed generouly with cooking spray. Coat the chips with plenty of spray and bake for 20-40 minutes or until crisp and browned, turning over once during cooking and spraying again if necessary.
  • The time they take to cook will depend on the size you cut them.
  • Delicious and different but not 'out there'.

These chips were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

These chips are a great alternative to traditional potato chips. They're healthier and just as tasty.
