To freeze fried polenta, follow these steps:

Allow the fried polenta to cool completely before freezing. This helps prevent condensation and ice crystals from forming during the freezing process.

Cut the fried polenta into desired portions or shapes that are suitable for your future use or serving sizes.

Place the fried polenta pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure they are not touching each other. This prevents them from sticking together as they freeze.

Place the baking sheet with the polenta in the freezer and let it freeze for a few hours until the pieces are firm.

Once frozen, transfer the fried polenta pieces into airtight freezer bags or containers. Label them with the date and store them in the freezer for up to 2 to 3 months. Make sure to remove as much air as possible from the bags to prevent freezer burn.
