Ingredients
- 1 cup Polenta
- 1 lb Mixed mushrooms
- 1/2 cup Parmesan
- 3 tbsp Butter
- 1 tsp Thyme
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Vegetable broth
Steps
- Bring 4 cups of salted water to a rolling boil.
- Whisk in the polenta in a slow, steady stream to prevent lumps.
- Reduce to low and stir often for 25 minutes, until thick and creamy.
- Stir in the butter and parmesan; cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, sear the mushrooms in a hot skillet in batches — crowding steams them instead of browning them.
- Add the garlic and thyme in the last minute.
- Pour in the broth and simmer 5 minutes into a rich ragout.
- Spoon the polenta into bowls and ladle the mushroom ragout over the top.
