Grilled Leek Polenta

2 Tbsp. vegan margarine
3 large leeks, cleaned and thinly sliced
1 cup water
2 cups vegetable broth
1 bay leaf
1 cup coarse cornmeal
Salt and pepper, to taste
Oil

•Melt 1 Tbsp. of the margarine in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the leeks. Cook, covered, for 10 minutes, or until softened, stirring occasionally.
•Add the water, broth, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Gradually whisk in the cornmeal.
•Reduce the heat and cook, stirring often and adding water as needed, for 30 minutes, or until thick.
•Discard the bay leaf and stir in the remaining 1 Tbsp. of margarine. Season with the salt and pepper.
•Brush an 11x7x2-inch dish with oil. Spread the polenta in the dish. Cool completely. (Can be made a day ahead. Just cover and chill.)
•Prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush the grill with oil. Cut the polenta into 12 squares or triangles. Brush both sides with oil. Place on the grill and cover. Grill until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Serve hot.
