"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Ingredients:  
2 cups water
1/2 cup fine polenta or yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup corn kernels
1/2 coarsely grated fontina plus 3 tablespoons for sprinkling
2 tablespoons sour cream or creme fraiche
1/4 cup prepared tomato sauce or tomato puree
4 large eggs

Directions:
Directions:
Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
Bring the water to a simmer in a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat. Slowly whisk in the polenta, trying to avoid lumps then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer the mixture, stirring almost constantly, for 15 minutes. Stir in the corn kernels, and cook for 5 more, continuing to stir regularly. Add 1/2 cup cheese and stir until melted, then season well with salt and pepper. Add the sour cream and stir until partially combined.
Coat a 1 quart baking dish or an 8 to 8 inch oven safe skillet with butter or nonstick cooking spray. Transfer the polenta to the dish, then dollop with spoonfuls of tomato, swirl them unevenly into the polenta, so that there are pockets of tomato throughout. (Feel free to add cherry tomatoes as well). Sprinkle the whole dish with sale and pepper then sprinkle with the 3 tablespoons of cheese. Bake in the heated oven until the whites are firm.
Sprinkle with parsley or chives and over easy eggs.
