Answers:
i like it grilled or pan fried!. on the grill it is good with a little jalape?o pepper mixed in topped with goat cheese, if you can eat that!.
I just buy the instant stuff that cooks up in one minute,add a little salt and pepper, and finely diced jalape?o, then spread it on a baking pan lined with wax paper about 1/2 inch thick!. Put it in the fridge for an hour or so!.
Take a large round cookie or biscuit cutter, and cut rounds of polenta!. Brush both sides with olive oil!.
Grill or pan fry for about two or three minutes per side!.

Here's my favorite sauce for polenta and baked tofu (I never measure but it always turns out good):
Saute 2 cloves garlic, 1/2 tablespoon fresh ginger for 2-3 min!. Add handful of chopped shiitake mushrooms (about a cup)!. Saute til cooked through!. Add about 1 cup soymilk (or heavy whipping cream if you prefer) and 2 T soy sauce (or Braggs)!. Let cook a few minutes, if using soymilk or regular skim milk, use cornstarch to thicken!. Once thick add cilantro to taste (I use about a handful b/c of love it) juice of one lime and sriracha hot sauce (if you like it spicy!)Www@FoodAQ@Com

The beauty of polenta is that it really isn't hard to cook and can be subject to so many variations!.
A basic way to eat it is to just bring your water to a boil, then add in your polenta, making sure to stir constantly until the water is all absorbed, and then add in a tbsp of butter and freshly gratted parmigiano-reggiano!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Cook it to be thick enough to set in a bread pan!.
After it cools dredge it in flour and fry it!.
Pour on the maple syrup and enjoy!.
You can make savory versions by adding sausage or herbs etc!. But then no syrup of course but as a side dish!.
Sorry about the meat!. I miss the section it is posted in!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
