Vickys Spiced Polenta Battered Fish, GF DF EF SF NF

I don't often deep fry anything but I had frozen fillets to use and I thought by frying them I'd be able to impart more flavour and get rid of the noticeable frozen taste. The batter is a good flavour, not too strong but you can fry off a little then taste and see if you'd like to add more spices in

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Slowly whisk in the water and milk to make a smooth batter
- 2
For the best batter, chill ALL of the ingredients - the flour etc too. The water and milk should be ice cold and I like to mix the dry ingredients together then put them in the fridge for an hour before mixing the liquids in
- 3
Sift the flour, polenta, baking powder, cumin, coriander, chilli powder, pepper and salt into a bowl
- 4
Heat the oil in a deep pan or fryer to 180C / 350F, a medium heat on the stove top
- 5
Pat dry the fish then coat each side of the fillets in cornstarch
- 6
Dip in the batter to completely coat
- 7
Deep fry the fish in batches until the batter is crisp and golden, around 4 - 6 minutes depending on the size of fillets you use
- 8
Drain on kitchen towel and serve immediately with chunky chips, lemon wedges and a garden salad

Spicy shrimp over creamy polenta Spicy shrimp over creamy polenta
I'm not a huge shrimp fan but I love spicy food and I love grits so... I did a play on "shrimp'n grits." I made a spicy shrimp over polenta. I'm going to give you my recipe for the spicy shrimp and it will go well over pretty much anything! You can use rice, grits, polenta, etc. You can make you polenta from scratch if you like but I used a ready made roll I found in the vegan section of my grocery store and just added water until it was the consistency I wanted. This recipe can easily be made vegan by leaving out the shrimp or maybe substitute tofu and using vegetable broth or water.Note: This is a very spicy recipe. You can omit the jalapenos or adjust the cayenne to suit your taste. Cooking with Kimberly Wood -
Easy Pre-made Polenta Easy Pre-made Polenta
So I saw a package of pre-made polenta and I wondered what it was so I got it, looking for something new to try. After I got home, all I could find was complicated (at least to me they were) recipes for this. Someone told me that it basically was another form of Grits, so I said the heck with it, I'll just wing it. Here is my creation that I actually enjoy now. I hope you can enjoy it too daniel.sommers.796 -

Polenta & Strawberry Cup Cakes. Super Moist & Yummy Polenta & Strawberry Cup Cakes. Super Moist & Yummy
I changed it a little and made cupcakes instead of 1 large cake. The large version serves 12, as watching the weight & handing out cup cakes are far easier for me and only take 10-12 minutes in the oven per batch. These cakes are fluffy light & amazing!!! Irmgard Gater
