Polenta - 4 cups water, 2 stock cubes (chicken or vege), 1 cup of cornmeal, - cook that up (like making porridge), add a 1/4 cup butter and melt that in (I often use olive oil instead). At this point you could just add some grated cheese and serve it up like mashed spud. The dish on the table had half a kilo of precooked, squeezed out and chopped spinach, and some cubed up feta (I've no idea how much I just cut off a lump and chop it up - the original recipe actually called for silver beet and blue cheese), plaster it into an oven dish and put some grated cheese on top. Bake in a moderate oven until well melted and golden on top. Eat it hot like porridge or cold and sliced up (a bit like a cold quiche).
Looks like a lovely family gathering.
