PERUVIAN QUINOA STEW....(VEGAN/VEGETARIAN)



Peruvian Quinoa Stew....(Vegan/Vegetarian) image

Yet another one from Moosewood cooks at home. I guess I'm in the mood for stew! You can top this with grated cheddar if you like (or vegan cheese for that mater). Cilantro is optional, but I think it really makes it. I also like cornbread with this - very satisying.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup quinoa
1 cup water
1 onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons oil (any light oil)
1 celery rib, chopped
1 carrot, sliced (1/4-inch thick slices)
1 bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces (any colour)
1/2 zucchini, cubed
2 cups chopped tomatoes (fresh or canned, undrained, a 28oz/800 ml tin works well)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 pinch cayenne (or to your taste)
1 teaspoon dried oregano (or 2 tsp fresh)
1 cup vegetable stock
fresh cilantro, finely chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Rinse your quinoa really well. Place it in a pot with the water and cook, covered over medium heat, for about 15 minutes or until soft. Set aside.
  • While the quinoa cooks, saute the onions and garlic in the oil for about 5 minutes over medium heat.
  • Add in the celery and carrots. Continue to cook for about 5 more minutes, stirring often so nothing sticks or burns.
  • Add in the bell pepper, zucchini and tomatoes, along with the spices (cumin, chili powder, coriander, cayenne and oregano). Let that blend together for just a few more minutes and then stir in the stock. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes until the veggies are tender.
  • Stir in the cooked quinoa and adjust the salt to taste. Just before serving, stir in the cilantro if you choose, or sprinkle on top.
