This is wintery comfort food at its finest. This dish is based on something eaten frequently in Lecco – polenta, salsiccia, e funghi. Although it tastes particularly good in the mountain lodges of Lecco, it\u2019s thankfully straightforward to recreate at home. Tuck in and enjoy with a glass of something equally warming.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Heat the oil in a large casserole pan over a medium heat.
\nAdd the carrots, onion and celery and sweat, partially covered, for 20 minutes. Stir every now and then.
\nSqueeze the sausages out of their skins and add to the pan. Crush up the sausage meat in the pan and cook for 5 minutes without stirring. Stir the mixture around, then cook for another 5 minutes without touching so that it caramelises on both sides.
\nAdd the mushrooms, garlic and herbs. Season well with salt and pepper, then cook for 5 minutes, stirring regularly.
\nSqueeze in the tomato puree and cook for 2 minutes, then add the wine or stock and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced.
\nPour in the tinned tomatoes and one tin\u2019s worth of boiled water. Give everything a really good stir.
\n Reduce heat to low, cover and cook for three hours, checking and stirring every now and then.
\n Check the seasoning at the end of the cooking time and add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with the soft Grana Padano polenta below.<\/span><\/h4>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”recipe_single_button” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Merriweather||on||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”26px” background_color=”gcid-26f0371c-74dd-4e63-bbf8-f8ec94f09a6d” transform_scale=”90%|90%” text_orientation=”center” width=”15%” width_tablet=”24%” width_phone=”25%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_margin=”0px||20px|-10px|false|false” custom_padding=”15px|20px|15px|20px|false|false” border_radii=”on|50px|50px|50px|50px” border_style_all=”none” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-26f0371c-74dd-4e63-bbf8-f8ec94f09a6d%22:%91%22background_color%22,%22background_color%22,%22background_color%22%93}”]<\/p>\n

Pour the water into a large pan with 1 teaspoon of salt. Cover and bring to the boil. When the water is boiling, pour in the polenta in a steady stream, whisking continuously (be careful as it might splash).
\n Reduce heat to low and simmer, whisking often, until polenta starts to thicken, about 5 minutes. Polenta mixture should still be slightly loose. When polenta is too thick to whisk, stir with a wooden spoon. Cover and cook for 30 minutes, whisking every 5 to 6 minutes (if using instant polenta, cooking time is reduced to around 10-15 min). Polenta is done when texture is creamy and the individual grains are tender.
\n Remove the polenta from the heat and fold in the cheese and butter until melted. Season with salt and pepper and serve straight away.
