Cheesy Polenta Topped Chorizo Pie; A vegan batch cooking dream!
Winter Warmer Pie:
Need something warm and hearty inside you? Then get some of this vegan Cheesy Polenta Topped Chorizo Pie inside you! The flavours were inspired by a pack of vegan chorizo sausages I'd picked up from the supermarket (Sainsbury's Pant Pioneers brand). Because they're already full of deliciously spicy and smoky flavours, I decided to let than be my guide, and added Mediterranean flavours; garlic, vermouth (fortified white wine) and herbs like thyme and lovage.
You could easily take this into a steak and onion pie, especially if you have access to gravy granules. Or you could go down the Not Shepherd's Pie route that I went on last year. You could even do a chilli non carne pie; endless possibilities!
I cooked the chorizo separately, in the air fryer, to get them well-cooked, but you'd end up with all their tasty fat if you fried them in the main pan (and them took them out to fry the veggies). The polenta doesn't have to be cheesy; you could leave it with just the butter, or try adding some chopped, toasted nuts.
This vegan pie can easily be made gluten free; just look out for non-gluten meat substitutes, and grains. More ideas in the video!
The idea has just popped into my head of trying a sweet polenta pudding. Lots of stewed fruits topped with sweetened polenta; maybe using coconut milk in place of the plant-milk I used (blend of oats, coconut and split peas). I bet that would taste like a softer/wetter version of the Summer Fruit Cornbread:

Welcome to my kitchen (lab?)
My channel is you watching the results of my 2am thoughts of “I wonder what would happen if I put A with B?” The answers lean heavily towards cake, and my ongoing quest to find a good meat substitute. I’m a vegan that loves animal products, but hates what’s involved; so I’ve dived headfirst into a rabbit hole of different plant-based textures and flavours. These are often the 1st time that I’ve tried a recipe, and I’ll talk you through why I’m using the ingredients and what I think happened when things go wrong.
Grab a vessel of whatever makes you happy and enjoy, but be warned; it’s messy here sometimes!
