Put milk in a pan, add sage, salt and 300ml (1⁄2 pint) water and bring to boil. Add polenta to the pan in a thin, steady stream, stirring, to make a smooth paste.
Step 2
Reduce the heat, add the garlic and cook for around 8min, stirring occasionally. Add the olive oil, then season and stir well. Press into a lightly oiled 450g (1lb) loaf tin and smooth the top. Cool for 45min. Turn the polenta on to a board and cut into eight slices.
Step 3
Melt the butter in a griddle pan and fry polenta slices on each side until golden.
Step 4
Divide among four plates. Add the salad, Gorgonzola, sunblush tomatoes and peppers, then season and serve.
At the end of step 2, wrap in clingfilm, put back in the loaf tin, overwrap in clingfilm and freeze. To serve, complete step 3 and griddle the frozen polenta for about 5min on each side until heated through.
