Method
- Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Spread the courgettes and tomatoes over a large baking sheet, then drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 10 minutes, then transfer to a plate (set the baking sheet aside and leave the oven switched on).
- Meanwhile, put the milk and stock in a large saucepan and bring to the boil. Put the polenta in a jug. When the liquid comes to the boil, pour in the polenta and stir continuously with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble. Turn down the heat, then stir in the cheddar and season with plenty of salt and pepper.
- Pour the cheesy polenta onto the baking sheet and spread out into a thin, even round. Spread over the passata (don’t worry that there is only a very thin layer). Top with the roasted veg and dolcelatte. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden, then garnish with basil leaves.
