Polenta in a rice cooker

I love eating polenta but I don't like making it. You have to stir it every 2-3 minutes for up to half an hour. I have better things to do with my time.

So I discovered how to cook polenta in a rice cooker. Here it is:

Servings: 4
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup coarse polenta
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt (you may want to adjust this to suit you)
  • 2 tablespoons butter or other oil such as olive oil
Directions:
  1. Place the ingredients into your rice cooker.
  2. Cook on the white rice setting until done (15 - 20 minutes).
  3. Add cheese (2 tbsp Parmesan) or other ingredients just before serving.

This usually takes 15 - 20 minutes, which is so much faster than stirring for that time!
