Hemp & Polenta Chips

Move over potato chips, these golden polenta chips are the new flavour sensation in town. Super easy, delicious & cheap to make! 

Ingredients

1 cup Quick Cook Polenta
4 cups Veggie Stock
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon rubbed Thyme
30g butter
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons Hemp Seeds
4 cups canola oil for frying

Method

1. On low heat, combine quick-cook polenta with stock in large pot. Quickly whisk for one minute until mixture thickens.
2. Add salt, butter, herbs. Stir for 3 mins. Remove from heat.
3. Evenly spread polenta mixture into a lined baking tray (approx 30cm x 25cm). Cover with beeswax wrap or compostic clingfilm. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
4. Heat frying oil to 190C. While oil is heating, remove polenta mixture from baking tray, cut into desired chip size, we recommend 2cm x 5cm.
5. Fry in batches for 5-8 mins or until golden.
6. To serve, sprinkle over hemp seeds & parmesan. Also try our Hemp Seed Aoli for dipping.

For a slightly healthier twist, brush chips with olive oil & bake in the oven on 180C for 12-15 mins or until golden.
