Polenta in a multicooker
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Mămăligă is a traditional Moldovan dish. Although, it's hard to find a national cuisine without a cornmeal porridge recipe. For example, in Italy, mămăligă is polenta. Traditionally, mămăligă is cooked in a cauldron with thick walls. But a multicooker works perfectly as well! To prepare mămăligă in a multicooker, you don't need much: the main thing is to have good quality cornmeal, and other ingredients can be added as you go. The finished dish can be served right away.
