Ingredients:


1 cup quick-cooking polenta or cornmeal

1 tablespoon chopped rosemary leaves

1 1/2 pounds crimini mushrooms -- brushed clean, halved

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 medium red onion -- finely sliced

4 cloves garlic -- thinly sliced

8 medium fresh sage leaves -- finely chopped

6 ounces dry red wine

1 teaspoon salt -- to taste

1 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper -- to taste
 

Preparation / Directions:


Bring 2 1/2 cups water to boil and add polenta in a thin stream, stirring constantly. When polenta is all in, lower heat to simmer and cook until very thick, or the consistency of thick oatmeal. Pour polenta into clean brownie pan (8-inch by 12-inch) and smooth over top with back of spoon to form even thickness. Allow to cool and then cut out round shapes with a 3-inch diameter wine glass. Preheat broiler. In a large 12-inch to 14-inch sauté pan, place mushrooms and olive oil under broiler. Brown lightly, shaking occasionally for 2 minutes. Remove from broiler and add onions, garlic and sage and sauté on top of stove at high heat until browned all over. Add wine and reduce to 2 tablespoons and set aside. On a broiler pan, place polenta and cook until crusty and evenly browned and hot (about 2 to 3 minutes). Place one round in center of each plate and divide warm mushroom mixture over each. Serve immediately. Source: MOLTO MARIO with Mario Batali From the TV FOOD NETWORK - (Show # MB-5626)
