OMG I am in love with this dish. I make enough for a good few days during the week and mix it with whatever I have.

I fry off onion, then add the quinoa and fry off for a while. Add some smoked paprika and curry powder. I also add some dried cranberries and raisins at this stage.

Add 2 cups of boiling water (1 cup of quinoa) with a bit of tumeric to the quinoa/onion/spice mix. Cook as normal then.

At the end, I toast off pine nuts/sliced almonds and then add to the cooked quinoa.

I then store this in the fridge once cooled. Today I'm having it with roasted chicken fillet, baby leaf lettuce, beetroot and salad cheese. Love love love it.
