200g Quinoa

1 Clove of garlic

½ Onion, diced

1 tsp Ginger

1 tsp Turmeric

120mL Coconut milk 

400mL Vegetable stock

100g Kale

Top with

Coriander and almond flakes (optional) 

Directions

Heat up a non-stick pan, once hot add the garlic and onions to saute. If they start to stick, add a little bit of water to the pan. Once sauteed, add in the ginger and turmeric, and cook for another 2 minutes. Then stir in the quinoa followed by the vegetable broth and bring to a boil.

Once it has reached a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until most of the liquid has been absorbed (about 15 minutes). 

Finally, add the coconut milk and kale. Continue to stir and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the kale has wilted. Top with fresh coriander and flaked almonds.
