Instructions
- Heat oven to 180C, Gas Mark 4.
- Pour the meatball mix into an appropriate size ovenproof dish. When the oven is up to heat, cook for 15-20 minutes.
- Chop the parsley and put aside.
- When the meatballs are halfway through cooking, start on the polenta.
- Add the vegetable stock to the medium pan and bring to a simmer. Add the polenta and put the pan on a low heat. As the polenta begins to heat, stir it with the wooden spoon. Do this for about 5 minutes on and off until the polenta is soft and creamy. Finish the polenta by stirring through the butter and most of the parmesan. Season to taste.
- Take the meatballs from the oven, taste and season if needed. Add half of the chopped parsley.
