Instructions

  1. Remove the sausages from their skins and put into a bowl with the parsley and mix well. Form into 12 balls.
  2. Brown on all sides in a fry pan in 2 Tablespoons olive oil. Drain on absorbent paper ( they don't need to be cooked all the way through).
  3. Put them back in the fry pan with the extra olive oil, tomato and basil and simmer on low till cooked through.or approximately 6-8 minutes. Season with sea salt and pepper

Polenta

  1. To cook the polenta. Bring the water (or stock) to a boil in a saucepan. When the water is boiling sprinkle in the polenta stiring or whisking till it is thick.Let it cook on low, leaving to simmer for around an hour. ( if you have instant polenta it will take 1/2 of this time. )
  2. When it is thick and bubbling like lava, add the parmesan and salt and pepper.
  3. Serve this just like mashed potato with the meat balls and sauce and shaved parmesan
