Polenta with Arugula Sauce
- Soft Polenta, cooked and warm
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 cups arugula leaves, cleaned and trimmed
- 1 cup heavy cream, hot
- 2 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano, grated
- Black pepper in a mill
- Cook the polenta and when it is nearly ready, place the garlic, salt, and 2 1/2 cups arugula in a food processor or blender and pulse until it is evenly chopped.
- Add half the cream and process until it is well blended.
- Add the remaining cream, pulse just enough to mix, transfer the sauce to a small warm bowl, and stir in the grated cheese.
- Keep the sauce warm.
- Pour the polenta onto individual serving plates-low soup plates are ideal-and spoon the sauce over each portion.
- Quickly slice the reserved arugula into thin strips and scatter over the surface.
- Add several turns of black pepper and serve immediately.
