Instructions
1
Cut the leeks diagonally in 5cm pieces and place them on the baking tray.
2
Keep small cherry tomatoes whole and cut larger ones in half. Place them on the
tray as well.
3
Season with salt, pepper and lay the garlic cloves around the veggies.
4
Top with thyme sprigs, salt, pepper and drizzle with plenty of olive oil so they
don't burn nor stick to the pan.
5
Take them to a preheated oven at 180C for 30-40min or until really soft and
starting to become golden.
6
Put the polenta and milk in a pot and stir with a whisk over medium heat.
7
Once it comes to a boil taste it to see if it needs more cooking (you shouldn't
feel any hard granules). If it needs further cooking add more milk and continue
cooking.
8
Add the parmesan cheese, let it melt and finish with the butter. Season with
salt and pepper.
9
Bring the water and vinegar to a boil.
10
Break the egg into a small container or ramekin.
11
Lower the heat for the water until you don't see any bubbles.
12
Make a swirl with a spoon, bring the container with the egg close to the water
and turn it over at once.
13
Carefully and delicately stop the swirl in the water to prevent the egg from
stretching.
14
Let cook for 2min or until you can touch it and feel the egg white hard and the
yolk liquid in the center. Whenever you add another egg you want to bring the
water back into a boil before lowering the heat and adding it.
15
Cut the tail of the egg (formed by the most liquid part of the egg white) off.
Place it on a dish first so the extra water can fall off it.
