Directions:
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat until it shimmers. Add onion, celery and carrot and sweat 5-10 minutes until onion is translucent and carrot is just tender. Add garlic and saute 1 minute. Add tomatoes, crushing each one in your fist as you add it, along with their juices. Add parsley and oregano. Bring to a simmer and cook gently, uncovered, 15 minutes or until sauce reduces to about 3 cups. Add fresh basil and season with salt and pepper.
- In a large saucepan, bring water and salt to a full rolling boil. Slowly drizzle in the polenta, whisking constantly. Once it's all added, reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until thick, about 10 minutes.
- Brush an 8x8x2 baking dish with olive oil. Spread 1/3 of the sauce over the bottom. Pour half the polenta over the sauce, and spread evenly. Sprinkle with half the cheese. Pour half the remaining sauce (another 1/3) over the cheese. Spread the remaining polenta over the sauce, then the remaining cheese, then the remaining sauce. Let stand at room temperature, loosely covered, 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350°F Bake 25-30 minutes until bubbly around the edges and heated through to the middle (test by slipping a knife into the center for 20 seconds, then CAREFULLY touching the tip to your lower lip). Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
