Quinoa with vegetables with a touch of citrus

A while ago I told you about the quinoa and its nutritional properties. Well today it's time to publish a recipe with this fabulous ingredient. In this case, we are going to prepare something simple so that we can become familiar with it and, above all, with its texture and flavor. We will prepare Quinoa with vegetables and a touch of citrus sauce.

The way of preparation will be quite similar to that of a rice, so you can add and modify the ingredients to your liking.

An advantage of quinoa over rice is that it remains firm once it has been cooked, and it is not as sensitive to heat as rice, which can be passed to us in a matter of a few minutes. So, it is a good option to take in a tupperware to work or to leave it prepared in advance.

Well, you will tell me your impressions. I hope you like it and that you will become more and more fond of this product.

Ingredients

For the broth:

  • 650 gr of vegetable broth (you can put water)
  • 40 gr of orange juice
  • 25 grams of lemon juice
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • A few threads of saffron
  • 1 cup of parsley leaves
  • 1 level teaspoon of salt
  • 1 cayenne (optional)

For the quinoa:

  • 50 g of red pepper
  • 2 natural tomatoes (one we will cut into pieces and reserve it to add it later and take it raw)
  • 1 small sweet chive
  • 50 g of thistle mushrooms
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 50 gr of virgin olive oil
  • 250 g of quinoa

Preparation

  1. We put the garlic, parsley and salt in the glass, and chop 15 seconds, speed 4. Add the juices, water, saffron and cayenne. We shred 20 seconds, speed 8. We remove the broth and reserve.

  2. Without washing the glass, add the pepper, tomato, mushrooms, chives and garlic. We program 5 seconds, speed 4. We lower the remains of the walls with the spatula and add the oil. We fry 5 minutes, 100º, speed 1.

  3. We place the butterfly on the blades and add the quinoa. We program 3 minutes, 100º, left turn, speed 1. Add the reserved broth and program 13 minutes, varoma temperature, left turn, speed 1. We must keep an eye on how the quinoa is made from broth. If we see that it is not evaporating much, when there are 3 minutes to go, we remove the beaker. And if we see that broth is missing, we add a little more. When the time is up, let it rest for 2 minutes in the glass.

  4. Pour into a source, place the chopped tomato on top and ready to serve.

Notes

I like to eat this dish warm or even cold.[br][br]Optional: you can sprinkle fresh chopped parsley on top when you serve it.

    Hello. After making the recipe, I have been told that the quinoa must be washed before cooking. .it's true?
    And if so. Why haven't you put it in the recipe?
    Can you eat if you have washed?

      Hello Manu, the quinoa that they sell already packaged in supermarkets is ready to eat so it is not necessary to wash it previously. This you would have to do if you acquire it directly from the cultivation. Thanks for writing to us!!
