How to cook Quinoa with vegetables
Step 1

Start frying the vegetables. Place the mushrooms, broccoli and carrots in a heated frying pan and fry for 7-10 minutes. Add a little water, salt and simmer under the lid until done for about 10 more minutes. When the vegetables are done, add the spinach and stir for 1-2 minutes. Then remove from heat.
Step 2

Prepare the quinoa. Heat a dry frying pan and fry the grains until golden brown over medium heat. Reduce heat and add water to cover the grains by 0.5-1 cm. Salt to taste and cover with a lid. Cook for 15-20 minutes over low heat until the water is completely absorbed. The quinoa will become soft and increase in size.
Step 3

Combine ingredients. Mix cooked quinoa with vegetables. Add salt and pepper if necessary. Let it warm up in a frying pan for about 2-3 minutes.
