Ingredients Needed for Sun-Dried Tomato, Polenta and Veggie Salad

3.5 ounces of cornmeal
3.5 ounces of sun-dried tomatoes in olive oil
1 arugula leaves

How to Make Sun-Dried Tomato, Polenta and Veggie Salad

  1. Pour about 1 cup (250 ml) of water in a pot, sprinkle some sea salt, and bring it to a boil.
  2. To make the polenta, gradually add the cornmeal in the water. Use a small balloon whisk and whisk vigorously until it thickens, to avoid the forming of lumps.
  3. Cover and cook the polenta on low heat for 20 to 30 minutes, whisking every 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Remove the polenta, place it on a plate and let it cool down.
  5. Shape small balls of polenta. Place the polenta balls on the bottom of 2 jars (12 ounces/370 grams).
  6. Squeeze the sun-dried tomatoes well and add them into the jars as well.
  7. Also split the arugula in half and add it to the jars, then the tofu cubes, radishes, cucumber, and sunflower seeds. Cover the jars.
  8. Make a dressing: add the olive oil in a small bowl, with some salt and red wine vinegar. Whisk.
  9. Pour the dressing over the salads just before serving them. Shake the jars and serve.
