cup Water
5 tablespoons Olive oil
¼ cup Butter
¾ cup Cornmeal
1 cup Parmesan cheese -- freshly

Directions

Combine water, 2 tablespoon oil and butter in heavy large saucepan.

Bring to boil, stirring until butter melts. Add cornmeal in steady stream, stirring constantly. Mix in ½ cup Parmesean.

Pour polenta into 11 x 7- inch oval baking dish or 8-inch square glass baking dish. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add all mushrooms and garlic; saute until golden, about 5 minutes. Add wine; boil until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add both broths; boil until liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Preheat broiler. Pour mushroom mixture over polenta. Sprinkle with ½ cup Parmesean. Bake until cheese melts and polenta is heated through, about 10 minutes. Serve warm.
