This time I offer you a diet cake made of corn groats without a gram of flour and with a minimum of butter. Ideally, it is prepared with a large bunch or even two bunches of fresh green onions. But it's not the season, it's not on sale, so we'll do the same with leeks, and if not, then with ordinary sauteed onions. So...

Instructions
- Cut off the dark part of the leek leaves and throw them away, separate the white part from the light green part so that it is easier to wash, divide the green part into leaves and rinse in running water from the ground and sand. Shake off the water and put it on a towel to drain the rest of the water.
- Then cut the white and light green parts lengthwise and thinly slice. Pour 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable oil into a saucepan, mix and passer. If we had fresh green onions, we wouldn't have to fry them - just crumble them into a cake preparation, and it would be even more dietary. So if you have it, feel free to take more. If you have an onion, then it will have to be saved, as well as leeks.
- Let's do the corn groats. If suddenly someone does not know, then it can be of three types: coarse, medium and fine grinding. You can call it not cereal, but "polenta", because it's the same thing. Fine grinding is similar to semolina. Not to be confused with corn flour! I have medium-ground cereals. As I have already indicated in the ingredients, take the grind that is available, it will still be delicious and everything will work out.
- Lightly rinse the grits, pour 1 liter of cold water and quickly bring to a boil, stirring constantly. The gurgling starts very quickly. Immediately reduce the heat to medium and stir very often! I mix thoroughly every minute so that the mass does not stick to the bottom and does not boil in lumps. Cook for 5-6 minutes. We need semi-dry cereal so that it only absorbs water. By the way, you can pour 100 ml into 1 liter. to make the pie more tender. In the process of cooking, I add a little salt to the grits, because the cheese is not very salty.
