Ingredients

  • 750 ml vegetable broth

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Bring the vegetable broth to a boil in a large pot. Stir in the cornmeal and simmer on low heat for 20 minutes until thickened. Spread the polenta into a 1 cm thick layer on an oiled baking sheet and let cool.

    Wash, trim, and cut the zucchini into pieces. Drain and finely chop the tomatoes. Wash, pat dry, and slice the basil into strips. Cut the olives into chunks.

    Sauté the zucchini pieces in hot olive oil until browned, season, then cover and steam for about 5 minutes. Fold in the tomatoes, olives, and basil; season with salt and pepper. Cut the cooled polenta into triangles or diamonds and fry each side in hot butter until golden brown. Serve with the zucchini ragout.
