  4. Remove from the heat and slowly sprinkle the cornmeal into the hot milk while stirring constantly with a whisk.
  5. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for a few minutes, until thickened and bubbly.
  6. Off the heat, stir in the Parmesan.
  7. Pour into a 9 X 13 X 2-inch pan, smooth the top, and refrigerate until firm and cold.

  10. Dust each triangle lightly in flour.
  11. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large sauté pan and cook the triangles in batches over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes, turning once, until browned on the outside and heated inside.
