GORGONZOLA POLENTA FRIES
Steps:
- Bring water, cream, garlic, salt and pepper to a boil in a medium saucepan; slowly whisk in cornmeal. Cook over medium-low heat until mixture begins to thicken, then stir in cheese. Cook and stir vigorously for about 5 minutes more or until mixture is as thick as bread dough. Spread 1/2-inch thick on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 1 hour. Cut into 1/2-inch strips resembling French fries. Heat oil to 325°F in a large deep pan. Carefully cook fries in hot oil until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Choose a good quality gorgonzola cheese, preferably one that is aged for at least 6 months.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized wedges so that they cook evenly.
- Soak the potato wedges in cold water for at least 30 minutes before frying. This will help to remove excess starch and make the fries crispier.
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit before baking the fries. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
- Bake the fries for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve the fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Gorgonzola fries are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. They are perfect for parties or game day gatherings.
