This creamy sage polenta is a classic Italian-inspired side dish that brings a sense of rustic comfort to any table. By slow-cooking the coarse grains until they reach a velvety consistency, you create a beautiful canvas for the earthy, aromatic notes of fresh sage. The addition of butter at the end ensures a glossy finish and a rich, savoury depth that complements a wide range of main courses.
As a versatile vegetarian option, this dish is perfect for chilly evenings when you need something substantial yet refined. It pairs wonderfully with roasted root vegetables, sautéed mushrooms, or a hearty Mediterranean stew. High in fibre and naturally warming, this homemade polenta is a reliable staple for those looking to expand their repertoire of simple, wholesome grains.

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
240ml coarse Italian polenta
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh sage

How to make Sage Polenta
Back to contentsBring the water to a boil in a large saucepan over high heat, then add 2 teaspoons salt. Whisking constantly, add polenta in a slow, steady stream and return to a boil. Reduce heat to a very low simmer. Cover partially; cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is creamy and starting to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 40 minutes, adding sage in last 5 minutes. If polenta is too thick to stir, add more water (up to 120ml ), a little at a time, and continue cooking, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat. Stir in butter, and season with pepper and more salt, as desired. Serve hot.
