Ingredients

4 cups vegetable stock
250 g polenta
1 lemon juiced
1 tsp paprika
1/4 cup parmesan grated
4 cups vegetable oil for frying

Method

Step 1

Bring the vegetable stock, lemon juice and paprika to the boil over medium-high heat. Add the polenta in a thin steady stream (refrain from tipping the whole packet at once). Whisk continuously. Reduce heat and continue stirring for 5 minutes until it thickens.
Step 2

Remove from heat and add the grated Parmesan. Stir (this recipe is great for the biceps!).
Step 3

Pour polenta into the baking tray and smooth the surface. Cover and chill in the fridge until set (overnight if possible).
Step 4

Remove from the tray and cut polenta into chips.
Step 5

Heat oil in a pan and deep-fry polenta chips in batches until golden. Sprinkle with salt and paprika.
