Subject: Microwave Polenta (again!)

After much testing, here is my new vegetarian polenta recipe.

1/4 cup polenta
1 cup brown vegetable stock (recipe follows)
salt pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice,
fresh tomato juice, or whey from yogurt.

Mix the polenta and stock in a microwave safe bowl. Add a little salt
and pepper, and the whichever of the acidic liquid you chose. Stir, and
cook on high, uncovered in the microwave for about three minutes.
Stir again, and notice how much liquid is left to be absorbed. Your
milage will definitly vary. I usually cook mine for about three more
minutes, but I have a very low power microwave. The best thing to do
is to cook in one minute intervals until polenta is thick and the
grains are chewy instead of crunchy. Let it rest for about one more
minute. Check the seasoning, and then you can eat it as is, or use as
a base for other recipes. (My next one is pizza with polenta crust.)
I add the acidic liquid, since I found that the vegetable stock is
very sweet from the browning. If you don’t have a microwave, you
can put this in the oven (350 degrees for about 30 minutes).

again. Cut the chicken into 1/2-inch pieces and mix with the fruit,
macaroni, jicama and onions. Mix the remaining ingredients and toss with
the chicken mixture. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2

An adaptation from a recipe in Aug. 92 Vegetarian Times

Paella Vegetariana

6- 8 oz flavored tofu or tofu sausage
(I used reduced-fat savory baked tofu, I don’t remember the brand)
2 cups black beans, cooked
(mix drained beans with juice of one lemon and set aside)
2-3 Tbs minced garlic
1 red pepper, diced
1 large onion, diced
1 large carrot, diced
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp fennel seed
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
1/4 tsp crushed saffron threads
2 cups uncooked long grain brown rice
3 1/2 cups boiling water
2 bay leaves
1 cup fresh or frozen green peas
1 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels
Cherry tomatoes, quartered, for garnish
Chopped parsley or cilantro, for garnish
Vegetable stock for saute-ing

Cut tofu into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Heat 1-2 Tbs of veggie broth in a pot. Add garlic and saute for about
one minute, then add diced pepper and saute until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
Set aside.

Heat 1-2 Tbs of veggie broth in a largish pot. Add remaining garlic and
onion and carrot. Saute for 2 minutes. Add paprika, fennel, cumin, salt,
pepper, cayenne if desired, and saffron. Stir for 30 seconds, then add
rice, boiling water, bay leaves, and tofu. Stir well and cover pot. Cook
for 40-45 minutes over low heat until water has been absorved and rice is
cooked. Add black beans, sauteed peppers, peas and corn to top of rice,
replace lid, and let sit for 5 minutes. Remove lid and fluff mixture with
a fork. Discard bay leaves. Serve garnished with cherry tomatoes and
parsley or cilantro.

Note: You may need to add more veggie broth to keep vegetables from
sticking during sauteeing. I didn’t measure, so am not sure of the
amounts here. This dish tastes amazingly rich considering it is so
low in fat, and is really colorful with all of those yummy veggies. My
husband didn’t like it because he dislikes fennel, so you can omit it
if you don’t like it either!
