The cultivation of corn and subsequent production of polenta has a long tradition in Ticino. The traditional mills in the Onsernone valley not only produce polenta but also "farina bona", a flour made from toasted corn. The toasting process gives the corn its special popcorn flavour. For this autumn gratin recipe, we have used Onsernone polenta – a blend of bramata and farina bona – together with an autumnal mushroom ragout.

Pour in the wine and stock, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer the vegetables for approx. 20 mins. Heat the butter in a frying pan, briefly sauté the mushrooms, add to the vegetables, simmer for approx. 5 mins. Stir in the parsley, season.
