Instructions

Step 1

Polenta: Bring water and salt to a boil in a large saucepan.

Step 3

Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 mins or until polenta starts to thicken.

Step 7

Melt butter in a medium frying pan. Add cream and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 5 mins or until mixture thickens.

Step 8

Remove pan from heat and gradually add blue cheese, lavato, Buffalotto and Parmesan. Stir until cheese is melted and sauce is creamy and smooth.
