RE: Thai Basil Lentils & Coconut Toasted Sesame Brown Rice (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)

in #food7 years ago

Hi @gikitiki, if you serve it on quinoa, do you use just boiled quinoa or do you mix it with something? I can find only quinoa to be a bit monotonous compared to something like rice so I wonder how you prepare it.

Sort:  

For this recipe, I like the quinoa plain since it will absorb the great flavours of the curry/stew.

My method for quinoa with a "dryer" topping (ie usually a grilled protein) is

  • in a dry pan, toast the quinoa like you would a spice
  • add a broth that will pair with the protein
  • simmer uncovered until the quinoa is to your desired doneness.
  • similar to a risotto, add a finely grated (use a zester) hard cheese (like Parmesan) to add

Thank you @gikitiki. That is some great advice. 😀
Need to try that next time I grill some meat or fish.
