Chop the onion and sauté in a dash of olive oil in a pan, seasoning with a pinch of salt.

Cut the red bell pepper into small cubes and add to the onion, stirring well and cooking until the onion is browned.

Add the polenta and stir, then add 4 times the amount of hot water.

Cook, stirring constantly to avoid lumps, until the polenta becomes a puree.

Check the seasoning and pour it into a dish greased with olive oil to solidify.
