From: AllRecipes

This is a basic recipe for a very easy and versatile
   dish. You can eat it like hot cereal, or chill it and then
   fry it. This goes well with syrup as a breakfast dish, or
   with savory sauces and vegetables for dinner. Prep Time:
   approx. 5 Minutes. Cook Time: approx. 7 Minutes. Ready in:
   approx. 12 Minutes. Makes 8 servings.

1 1/4 cups cornmeal
2 1/2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt


Directions
1 Mix together cornmeal, water, and salt in a medium
   saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until
   mixture thickens, about 5 to 7 minutes.
2 If using as cereal, spoon mush into bowls and serve
   with milk and sugar, if desired. If frying, pour mixture
   into a loaf pan and chill completely. Remove from pan, cut

   medium-high heat until browned on both sides. Serve with sauce of
   your choice.
