Croque-Polenta

I don’t know about you, but I still have a packet of polenta that I don’t know what to do with lying in the back of the closet. In fact, I never think of using it in my kitchen.

And then while scrolling on Pinterest, I came across this idea: replace sandwich bread with polenta. And I thought the idea was great!

I put in Camembert but you put what you want: goat cheese, Comté cheese, ewe’s tome, reblochon, mozzarella … I especially wanted to let you know about this idea of ​​croque-polenta!

For 4 people:

• 1 camembert (or any cheese of your choice!)
• 4 slices of ham
• 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs

Directions

• 1-Bring the water to a boil with a little coarse salt and the bouillon cubes.
• 2- Pour in the polenta and mix over medium heat for 5 minutes until the preparation thickens.
• 3- Prepare a large sheet of baking paper and spread the polenta on it. Make a rectangle 5 mm thick. If your plate is not big enough, make a second plate.
• 4- Let cool at room temperature until the polenta is firm.
• 5- Cut 12 squares of the same size.
• 6- Cut into each slice of ham 2 squares of the same size.
• 7- Place on 8 squares of polenta, a piece of ham, thin slices of cheese.
