SOFT POLENTA WITH WINE LAMB

4 cups hot water
1 1/4 cups polenta
Sea salt and pepper
65 g butter
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup mascarpone
Cracked black pepper
8 lamb cutlets
1/2 cup red wine
1/2 cup beef stock
2 tablespoons quince paste

To cook polenta, place water in a heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Allow water to come to a slow simmer. Slowly pour polenta into water while whisking to combine. Reduce heat to as low as possible. Stir polenta occasionally with a wooden spoon for 40-45 minutes. Polenta is cooked when it comes away from the sides of the pan. Stir salt, pepper, butter, parmesan, mascarpone and extra pepper through polenta and keep it warm. 

Place in a frypan over high heat, add cutlets and cook for 2 minutes on each side or until they are cooked medium. Remove cutlets from pan and keep them warm. Add wine, stock and quince paste to pan and simmer for 5 minutes or until sauce has thickened.

To serve, place polenta on serving plates, top with lamb and spoon over sauce.

Serves 4.
