Preheat the oven to 180C fan-forced (220C conventional).

In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, butter, parmesan and polenta. Transfer to a lightly greased 2.5 litre ovenproof dish. Cover with baking paper and foil, place in the oven and cook for 15 minutes.
Step 3
Uncover, top with pancetta and taleggio and cook for a further 15 minutes, or until golden.
