Ingredients
- 65g quinoa, raw
- 150ml water
- 1/2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small red onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves of crushed garlic
- 60g courgette, sliced
- 60g broccoli florets
- 2 medium mushrooms sliced
- 1 medium sized tomato chopped
- 1/2 tsp chaat masala
- 1/2 tsp red chilli flakes
- 1 tsp reduced salt, light soya sauce
- 1 tsp rice vinegar
Method
- Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a saucepan, bring 150ml of water to a boil. Add the quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the quinoa is cooked and the water is absorbed. Fluff the quinoa with a fork and set aside.
- In a medium skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened, then add the tomotoes, chill flakes and masala. Cook for another 2 minutes.
- Add the courgette, broccoli, and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce and rice vinegar. Pour the sauce over the vegetables and stir to coat evenly.
- Add the cooked quinoa to the skillet and toss everything together until well combined. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat the quinoa through.
