Ingredients:

Serving

2 lb chinese broccoli, thick ends trimmed
6 cups water
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups polenta (not instant ) or yellow cornmeal
3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp finely grated parmesan
2 tbsp olive oil
3/4 lb hot italian sausage, casings removed
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

Directions:

Cook broccoli: Cut broccoli stems diagonally into 1-inch pieces and coarsely chop leaves. Cook stems in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about4 minutes. Stir in leaves and cook 1 minute. Drain in a colander, then rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Do not squeeze out excess water.
Cook polenta: Bring water with salt to a boil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan, then add polenta in a thin stream, whisking constantly. Cook over moderate heat, whisking, 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and simmer polenta, covered, stirring for 1 minute after every 10 minutes of cooking, 45 minutes total. Stir in butter, cream, and cheese and remove from heat.
Sauté sausage and garlic while polenta cooks: Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté sausage, stirring and breaking up meat into large pieces with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a plate. Reduce heat to moderate, then cook garlic in skillet, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes.
Add broccoli and cook, stirring and scraping up brown bits from bottom of skillet, 2 minutes. Return sausage to skillet and toss with greens, salt, and pepper. Serve over polenta.
