FOR THE TOPPING
Step 8
Bring 5 cups of water to a rolling boil in a heavy saucepan or double boiler. Slowly pour the cornmeal into the water in a thin, steady stream, stirring continuously to avoid lumping.
Step 9
Add the salt and cook over very low heat, covered, for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 10
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Step 11
Lightly oil a shallow 1 1/2-quart baking dish and line the bottom with half of the cooked cornmeal.
Step 12
Pour the skillet mixture over it and sprinkle with the grated cheese. Top with the remaining cornmeal, patting it in smoothly.
Step 13
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the cornmeal is golden brown and crusty.
Step 14
Let stand for 10 minutes, then cut into squares or wedges to serve.
