BREAD & BUTTER
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a skillet or an oven proof pan in the hot oven to heat up. Heat 20g of butter in the microwave or in a pot over the stove until melted. In a bowl, combine the sweetcorn, the melted butter, 1 egg, and the Milk. Mix until combined. Add the Polenta, the flour mix, the sugar (don’t add all the sugar if you’d prefer a more savoury cornbread), and seasoning.
CORNBREAD
Carefully remove the skillet or pan from the oven and add a drizzle of oil. Swish the oil around to make sure the base is fully greased. Pour in the batter and spread it out evenly. Return to the hot oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and a skewer comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool for 15 minutes before turning it out. Run a knife around the edge to help turn out the cornbread. Cut into pieces as desired.
PREP STEP
While the bread is baking, rinse and roughly shred the salad leaves. Rinse the Radish and thinly slice into rounds. Zest the lemon and cut into wedges.
FRESHY ZESTY
In a small bowl, combine the juice of 1 Lemon wedge, a drizzle of oil, sweetener to taste, and some seasoning. Set aside. In a salad bowl, combine the shredded salad leaves, the Radish rounds, and ½ the chopped walnuts. Just before serving, toss the lemon vinaigrette through the salad.
YOU’RE BACON ME CRAZY
Slice each bacon strip in half lengthways. Wrap a bacon slice around the length of each broccoli stem. Place the bacon-wrapped broccoli on a baking tray (along with any leftover broccoli). Drizzle over a little oil and season. When the cornbread is done, add the broccolini to the hot oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until cooked through and crisping up.
Lemon BUTTER SAUCE
Place 30g of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. When it starts to foam, add the juice of 1 Lemon wedge, the lemon zest, and the remaining walnuts. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the butter is slightly browned.
