Method

  1. In a copper pan over the heat, fry the butter, cornmeal and salt, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it reaches the browning you like.

  2. Pour the boiled water in from the edges toward the centre and stir until smooth, then lower the heat.

  3. When it is as thick as a pudding, lay the cheese, which you have already pulled into thin strands, on top. Press lightly with a spoon but do not stir.

  4. Turn the heat up fully for 10-15 seconds, then take it off the stove and serve hot.
