Directions

1. Preheat the over to 220 Celsius degree.
2. Prepare your veggies by washing and cutting them into bite sized pieces. Place them on a large rimmed baking sheet, cover with olive oil, thyme, rosemary and a pinch of salt. Roast until they begin to soften and turn brown, for about 20 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a sauce pan. Stir in 1 teaspoon salt and the minced garlic.
4. Gradually sprinkle the corn meal into the pan while whisking at the same time to prevent clumps from forming. After a few minutes the polenta should start to thicken. Continue whisking while you remove form heat.
5. Continue stirring for about 10 more minutes while you add in vegan butter, vegan sour cream and parmesan cheese to the polenta. It should become thick and creamy and it will set as it cools. Season with pepper and more salt if needed.

Serve polenta with roasted veggies on top and with extra parmesan or even toasted nuts and seeds.
