Ingredients
1/2 cup cornmeal (or polenta)
2 cups water
1/2 tsp salt
maple syrup
butter
Steps
Place the water in a large saucepan and slowly bring to the boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, add the salt to the water and mix through.
Slowly add the cornmeal (polenta) while mixing. Take this slow as it can go lumpy if you go add it too fast.
Once all the cornmeal (polenta) has been added, turn the heat down low and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring every few minutes.
It is done when it looks like cooked oatmeal.
Once cooked, serve warm in bowls drizzled with maple syrup and a small dab of butter.

Terry on 2022-03-30 (5 stars): I forgot how much we all used to like this meal. Its funny how you can have a favorite food or recipe and then stop making it. Thanks for the reminder. I'll be making this again soon.
