Bryn Williams' rustic vegetarian main takes inspiration from the healthy, flavourful cooking of Italy. Bryn makes a classic wet polenta and lightens it with mascarpone, before topping with meaty wild mushrooms and Swiss chard which has been blanched in a rapeseed oil emulsion. Perfect as a healthy midweek dinner. Whisk in the polenta, whisking constantly until smooth.
Steps to make Swiss Chard and Mushroom Polenta:
- Blanch the Swiss chard for a few minutes and then squeeze out the water. Cut into bite-size pieces.
- Slice the mushrooms and onions.
- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and stir-fry the onion until translucent and soft.
- Add the mushrooms and pine nuts and stir-fry. Add the Swiss chard and lightly stir-fry. Season with salt and pepper.
- Boil the water (or stock) in a pot. Stir the cornmeal, a little at a time, into the boiling water.
- The cornmeal will thicken; stir constantly with a wooden spatula. Lower the heat and continue stirring.
- After it's simmered for 20 minutes, add the butter and parmesan cheese (if desired) and mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Polenta becomes firm once it cools. You can then slice it and grill it. (The photo shows firm polenta that I made with 600 ml of water).
Stir in a big pinch of salt. Add the polenta in a slow, steady stream, stirring constantly. Meanwhile, prepare the chard and mushrooms. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the chard leaves, folding them to fit, and the rosemary sprig.
