Ingredients
Eggplant sauce
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 medium eggplant, cut into3/4 inch dice
2 tsp tomato paste
1/4 cup white wine
1 cup chopped peeled tomatoes (fresh or canned)
6 1/2 tbsp water
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp sugar
 
1 tbsp chopped oregano
Polenta
6 ears of corn
2 1/4 cups water
3 tbsp butter, diced
7 oz feta, crumbled
1/4 tsp salt
black pepper

Instructions
To make the eggplant sauce. Heat up the oil in a large saucepan and fry the eggplant on medium heat for about 15 minutes , or until nicely brown. drain off as much oil as you can and discard it. add the tomato pates to the pan and stir with the eggplant. Cook for 2 minutes, then add the wine and cook for 1 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes, water, salt, sugar and oregano and cook for a further 5 minutes to get a deep-flavour sauce. Set aside; warm it up when needed.
To make the polenta. Remove the leaves and 'silk' from each ear of corn, then chop off the pointed top and stalk. Stand each ear upright on its base and use a sharp to shave off the kernels. You want 1 1/4 lbs of kernels.
Place the kernels in a medium sauce pan and cover them with the water. Cook for 12 minutes on a low simmer. Use a slotted spoon to lift the kernels from the water and into a food processor; reserve the cooking liquid. Processor them for quite a few minutes, to break as much of the kernel case as possible. Add some of the cooking liquid if the mixture becomes too dry to process.
Now return the corn paste to the pan with the cooking liquid and cook while stirring, on a low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to a mashed potato consistency. Fold in the butter, the feta, salt and some pepper and cook for a further 2 minutes. Taste and add more salt if needed. Divide the polenta among shallow bowls and spoon some warm eggplant sauce in the centre.
