This was a nice accompaniment to mackerel fillets, the richness of the fish balanced with the creamy taste. Even with the mackerel and some grilled tomatoes it was still a 10 minute meal. The polenta did need plenty of seasoning though.

A very useful and superquick meal and a change from rice, potatoes and pasta, doesn't need the mascarpone - can use a bit of butter or milk instead.

Because polenta looks so lush I suspect we expect it to taste of something... It doesn't especially. Like couscous, tofu, pasta ... It's just a great vehicle for other flavours and ingredients. This recipe didn't have much oomph for what I needed it for so added sautéed onions, garlic and mushrooms…

I agree with Rancegal - I guess that it the mag this was featured next to a pork dish. It works as an accompaniment but would not be interesting on its own. We had it with meatballs in tomato.
