Steps
To make the polenta with mushrooms and sausage, clean the mushrooms, then slice them with a knife, and crumble the sausage.
In a pan, lightly brown the chopped garlic with extra virgin olive oil and chopped parsley.
Then add the sausage and let it brown for a couple of minutes. Finally, add the mushrooms, salt, and cook for about 15 minutes.
Make the polenta: in a large pot, bring the salted water to a boil, then slowly pour in the cornmeal and a drizzle of oil, stirring with a whisk, making sure no lumps form.
Continue cooking the polenta for about 40 minutes on low heat, stirring continuously, taking care not to let it stick to the bottom, until you obtain a thick and soft polenta.
Pour the polenta onto a serving dish and add the mushroom and sausage sauce. Serve and enjoy!
