Method
1. Bring stock to the boil in a small saucepan. Add polenta gradually in a slow steady stream, stirring constantly. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until very thick. Pour onto a sheet of foil and spread into a rectangle about 14cm x 10cm. Wrap up to enclose. Place in fridge for 20 minutes or until set. 2. Meanwhile, spray a large saucepan with oil, and heat over medium heat. Add onion, carrot, celery and garlic. Cook, stirring often, for 4 minutes or until soft.
3. Add tomatoes, zucchini and 3/4 cup (185ml) water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and liquid has reduced. Stir in beans, and season with freshly ground pepper. 4. Cut the polenta into four triangles. Spray a large non-stick frying pan with oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the polenta. Cook for 5 minutes each side or until crisp and golden. 5. Divide the bean stew between bowls. Sprinkle with the basil, and serve with the polenta.

Make sure you buy finely ground polenta (sometimes known as instant polenta) which cooks quickly.
