- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grease a deep 9-inch (22cm) round cake tin, or 8 individual ring moulds, and line the base with baking paper.
- Bring the water to a boil, add the polenta, and stir until thickened. Then, cover and cook on low heat for another 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Add the white chocolate, and stir until melted.
- In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar until thick and pale yellow.
- Beat in the polenta mixture, flour, ground almonds and diced kiwifruit.
- In another bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff. Fold 1/3 of the whites into the cake mixture, then fold in the rest.
