1. Follow instructions on polenta packet to make 'firm' polenta. Once cooked the optional chillies can be stirred in if using.
2. Spread the polenta mix onto a baking tray that has been lined with baking parchment. Polenta should be spread fairly thinly (about 5mm thick, just under ¼"). Leave to set.
3. Just before serving is required preheat the grill on high, remove the set polenta from the baking parchment and place it on a heatproof tray or grillpan. Place under the grill and leave to heat until the polenta starts to slightly brown and bubble.
4. Remove from under grill, turn the polenta over and repeat heating the other side.
5. Remove the grilled polenta from under the grill and generously sprinkle the grated cheese over the top. Place back under the grill and leave until the cheese is bubbling.
6. Remove from under the grill and cut into small triangles, or any other preferred shapes. Why not use cookie cutters for a really different or festive look. Serve hot.

These are great for eating with an assortment of dips.
