Method

  • 1. Mix the yoghurt, pestorissa and milk together and season.

  • 2. Line a tray with parchment paper.

  • 3. Heat 500ml of water with the vegetable stock. Bring to the boil, then slowly pour in the polenta.

  • 4. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the polenta is smooth and thick. Add the butter a few cubes at a time. Add the Italian hard cheese and some salt. Cook for another 5 minutes.

  • 5. Transfer to the tray and use a wet spatula to spread the polenta out evenly. Lay another sheet of baking paper on top and press down lightly.

  • 6. Set aside to cool before transferring to the fridge for 2 hours or overnight. Flip the polenta out of the tray on to a chopping board and cut into chips each measuring approximately 10cm x 2cm.

  • 7. Deep fry the chips for 4 minutes until golden and serve with the pestorissa and yoghurt dip.
