Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Vegan Polenta with Cheese.
Step 1
To start your delicious polenta, grab a saucepan and pour in the vegetable broth, half a cup of water, oat milk, and a pinch of salt.
Step 2
Place it over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a lively boil.
Step 3
Once you see those bubbles dancing, lower the heat to medium-low and slowly whisk in the polenta.
Step 4
Keep stirring continuously to ensure a smooth texture without any lumps.
Step 5
Let it cook for about five minutes, allowing the polenta to thicken beautifully.
Step 6
Now, reduce the heat to low and keep stirring frequently for another ten minutes.
Step 7
This is where the magic happens! As the polenta cooks, it will become creamy and comforting.
Step 8
When it’s just right, stir in the shredded vegan cheese and a dollop of vegan butter, mixing until everything is melted and silky smooth.
Step 9
If you find the polenta a bit too thick for your liking, don’t hesitate to add the remaining water gradually until you reach that perfect velvety consistency.
Step 10
Once you’re satisfied, transfer the polenta to an oiled plate and let it rest for a few minutes.
Step 11
This little pause allows the flavors to settle and makes serving even easier.
Step 12
Enjoy your warm, creamy polenta as a delightful side dish or a cozy main course!.
