In case you are wondering what we had for Iftar yesterday, let me tell you that Chef Diva was in the kitchen and that can only mean a western meal. For the first time she cooked Polenta for us.Polenta is actually a corn meal mush, made from dried ground maize, and supposedly it is the staple food of northern Italy. Some people do prefer Polenta to pasta. I can say that it is a good substitute for bread, mash potatoes or rice.
We had our Polenta with sauté mushrooms, tomato sauce and roast chicken. It was very nice for a first timer. Everyone emptied their plates in no time, before attacking the brownie with white chocolate that Chef Diva had made for dessert.
