Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Roasted Tomatoes
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, toss the halved cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until caramelized.
Make the Polenta
- In a saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Gradually whisk in the polenta, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Reduce heat and cook for about 15-20 minutes until thickened. Stir in parmesan cheese, olive oil, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper.
Assemble the Bake
- In a greased baking dish, spread half of the polenta mixture evenly. Layer the roasted tomatoes on top, then add the remaining polenta. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden. Remove from oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Serve
- Garnish with fresh basil and serve warm. Enjoy your savory herbed polenta and roasted tomato bake!
