Now seriously, does it have to be fried? I got this recipe from the book Everyday Italian written by Giada De Laurentiis. She has got to be THE SKINNIEST chef in the world. Don’t get me wrong. I do like her recipes. And I do like her show. And obviously, I like her book or I would not have purchased it. But how can someone who is so flippin’ skinny make something FRIED and remain skinny?
The basics of this recipe is to make a basic polenta recipe, spread it out in a pan, cool it in the fridge, cut it up, fry it in olive oil, sprinkle fresh grated parmesan on top, and dip in marinara sauce. I didn’t have parmesan. So I had sauce and fried polenta. Not bad. Would have been much better with the parmesan, as recommended in the recipe. After all, it’s a FRIED recipe. And anyone who knows me, KNOWS I love fried food.
Doesn’t it kill you that’s she’s so skinny? AND SHE’S A MOM!!
I own 4 of her cookbooks, and can’t figure out how she is so damn skinny if she is eating her own food. Seriously.
