White onion, chopped             1/8 cup

Garlic, minced                         1 tablespoon

Olive oil                                  2 to 3 tablespoons

To Prepare:

Peel, wash and chop the onion and garlic.

In a pan on medium heat, sauté the onion and garlic in olive oil. Add the vegetable stock and milk and bring to a simmer (never boil milk) while constantly stirring. Add the cornmeal gradually, in small amounts or in a thin but steady stream while stirring constantly. Continue to stir the cornmeal mixture while it is simmering. When you get the consistency that is thick, almost mashed potatoes but runny, you can season to taste with salt and pepper.
