Ingredients
Polenta
- 120 gr. of Polenta.
- 250 ml. of Water.
- 1 Tbsp. of Vegetable vegan bouillon powder.
Tomato Sauce
- 2 large garlic cloves.
- 2 Tbsp. of Olive oil.
- 250 ml. of Passata.
- ¼ Tsp. of Sodium bicarbonate.
- 1 Tbsp. of Red wine.
- 1 Tsp. of Soy sauce.
- 1 Pinch of Himalayan salt.
- ½ Tsp. of Paprika.
- ½ Tsp. of Parsley.
- ½ Tsp. of Oregano.
- 1 Bay leaf.

Instructions
Polenta
- Pour the water into a pot and bring it to a boil (to speed up the process you can boil the water in an electric kettle and then pour it into the pan). Add 1 tbsp of Vegetable vegan Bouillon powder and stir well.
- Remove the pan from the heat and pour the polenta little by little. Stir with a whisk at the same time to prevent getting lumps.
- Once you mix all the polenta return the pan to medium heat and cook for a few minutes. Keep stirring until the polenta is fully cooked (double-check cooking times on the package).
- Turn off the heat and reserve for serving.
Tomato sauce
- Place a frying pan on the stove at medium heat and pour 2 tbsp of olive oil (if you want an oil-free option replace the oil for vegetable broth).
- Peel and dice the garlic cloves and fry them for a couple of minutes. Then pour the passata and add ¼ of tsp of sodium bicarbonate y 1 tbsp of red wine.
- Season to taste with: soy sauce, Himalayan salt, paprika, parsley, oregano, and 1 wash bay leaf. Stir well.
- Cook the tomato salsa for around 8 to 10 minutes and turn off the heat.
Assemble
- Place the polenta on a plate (I normally use soup plates or bowls), add vegan cheese* of your choice and pour the tomato sauce on top.
