Puliszka is a traditional Romanian dish, primarily made from cornmeal. Despite its simplicity, the dish is rich in flavor, and the soft, creamy texture of the cornmeal makes it a perfect accompaniment to various meat and vegetable dishes. Puliszka is a true comfort food that can be easily prepared for any meal.
When preparing puliszka, the cornmeal is boiled in water or milk and then continuously stirred until a creamy consistency is achieved. The dish is often served with sour cream, cheese, or various stews to create a perfect harmony in every bite. Puliszka can be combined with a variety of dishes, and everyone can find their own favorite version.

Slowly whisk in the cornmeal, ensuring there are no lumps.
Cook the puliszka over low heat for 15-20 minutes, or until it thickens and the cornmeal is tender.
Stir in the butter until smooth.
Serve topped with grated cheese and a dollop of sour cream.
