Ingredients

Polenta Fries

  • 1 cup polenta (yellow cornmeal) (150 g)
  • 2 1/2 cups vegetable broth (600 ml)
  • 3 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground oregano
  • Sea salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for brushing

Breading

  • 1/2 cup oats ground into flour (gluten-free if needed) (45 g)
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground oregano
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Sea salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  • Pour vegetable broth into a pot, add all spices, sea salt, and pepper and bring to a boil.
  • Slowly add the cornmeal and whisk constantly to prevent lumps. Cook for about 5 minutes on low heat, then turn off the heat.
  • Pour the polenta into a baking dish, lined with parchment paper. I used a 9-inch square pan. Put the pan into the fridge for about 1 hour to set.
  • For the breading, simply put all ingredients into a small bowl and mix with a spoon.
  • Remove the cold polenta from the pan and cut it into equally sized slices. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Brush the polenta slices with a little vegetable oil and coat with the breading mixture.
  • Bake in the oven for about 40-45 minutes or until golden brown. Flip after 25 minutes.
  • Enjoy with a dip of choice.
