Ingredients:

150 grams cornmeal (polenta) (about 1 cup)
950 milliliters water or broth (4 cups)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: 30 grams butter (2 tablespoons), 50 grams cheese (1/4 cup), herbs for flavor
Instructions:

Bring the water or broth to a boil in a large saucepan.
Gradually whisk in the cornmeal, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, for 20-30 minutes until thickened and creamy.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and stir in any optional ingredients like butter or cheese if desired.
Serve polenta warm as a porridge-like base or pour into a greased dish to cool and set for grilling or frying.
Servings: Typically serves 4-6, depending on portion size.
