Instructions
1
Bring the vegetable stock to a boil in a pot. While whisking constantly, slowly pour in the cornmeal to prevent lumps from forming.
2
Reduce the heat to a minimum and cook the polenta for about 15–20 minutes (or according to the package instructions), stirring occasionally. At the end, stir in the nutritional yeast and olive oil.
3
While the polenta is cooking, clean the mushrooms and slice them. Cut the smoked tofu into small cubes.
4
Heat a little oil in a pan and fry the mushrooms over high heat until golden brown. Add the tofu and fry for another 5 minutes.
5
Add the garlic, thyme and pepper. Once the garlic becomes fragrant, pour in the tamari sauce and cook for another minute to let the flavors combine.
6
Divide the creamy polenta among plates, top with the mushroom and tofu mixture, and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
