Instructions
Step 1
In a large saucepan, bring the water or vegetable stock to a boil. Slowly pour in the polenta, whisking constantly to prevent clumps.
Step 2
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the grated parmesan cheese. Cook the polenta for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it's thick and creamy.
Step 3
While the polenta is cooking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced guanciale and cook until it's crispy and browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 4
Add the minced garlic and chopped porcini mushrooms to the skillet with the guanciale. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant and the mushrooms are tender.
Step 5
Once the polenta is cooked, stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 6
To serve, spoon the creamy polenta into bowls and top with the guanciale and porcini mushroom mixture. Drizzle with truffle oil and enjoy!
