Polenta with Cheese
- 2 cups milk
- 2 cups boiling water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1/4 pound American cheese, grated
- Pepper and paprika to taste
- Fine seasoned bread crumbs
- 1 egg, beaten
Heat water and milk to boiling point, add salt and slowly stir in the cornmeal; cook in double boiler for 30 minutes (be patient, you rascal). Add the tasty cheese and seasonings; and pour into a shallow pan. When cold and firm, cut into squares, dip in crumbs, then in beaten egg diluted with a small amount of water, again in crumbs, and fry in deep hot fat. Serve with tomato sauce.
