Bring water and salt to a boil in a pan, pour polenta slowly into boiling water, whisking constantly until all polenta is stirred in and there are no lumps. (Cook 25-30min)
In a hot pan with oil fry the onions, then add mushrooms. Bake for 5 more minutes. When it’s cooled down a little bit, add the chopped garden herbs. Shake the polenta in a pan with fried onions and mushrooms and mix everything well.
Squeeze the whole mixture on one side of the pan and leave to cool and firm up.
