Lemony Quinoa Recipe


Ingredients:

1 and 1/2 cups Quinoa
1/4 cup sliced onion
1 tbl spn black olives
1/4 tea spn pepper powder
Little butter
1/4 cup chopped capsicum (bellpepper)
1/4 cup corn
1 tea spn chopped jalapeƱos
1-2 tbl spns lemon juice
Salt

Method:

Cook Quinoa according to package instructions in water or vegetable stock or chicken stock. Add salt while cooking. As the Quinoa I had did not come in package, I just cooked in salted water 1:2 (quinoa to water) ratio for about 10mins (covered).
In a separate pan, melt butter and add onion, capsicum. When they are slightly cooked, add corn, salt and cook till corn is done. I used frozen corn which took just about 1 min to cook. But if you are using fresh ones that take long time to cook, separately cook it and add to onion-capsicum mixture.
Now add olives, pepper powder, jalapeƱos cooked Quinoa and mix well. Add lemon juice, mix well and take off heat. Serve hot.
