Steamed Quinoa

I love quinoa, it's the nutty taste and more substantial mouth feel than cous cous that I think is the winner. Plus it's one of those foods that makes you feel healthy when you eat it, even if you've just binged on choccy biccies beforehand ;-)

I prefer to steam mine and follow this rule of thumb for perfect results every time:
Measure 1 cup quinoa into a lidded pan, add just under 2 cups water and a tsp vegan stock powder. Bring to the boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 mins. Turn off the heat and leave to absorb the steam for a further 10-15 mins (you can leave it like this for ages too if you need to).

To serve use like rice or any other grain, or it's also nice dressed with oil and/or vinegar/lemon juice. This amount will do 2 meals, so add more in the same ratio for more people/additional days.
