Cooking Steps

1

To prepare the ingredients, rinse the quinoa and wash the baby spinach. Cut the broccoli into florets and the lime into wedges. Grate the zucchini and remove the excess moisture. Peel and crush the garlic. Deseeded and slice the birdseye chilli. Slice the haloumi.

2

Place the quinoa and the water into a medium saucepan over a medium-high heat and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until just tender. Add the broccoli and cook for a further 2 minutes or until tender. Drain really well and remove the broccoli. Rinse the quinoa under hot water. This helps to separate the grains so that it’s not gluggy.

Soften the veggies
3

Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the baby spinach and zucchini, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until the veggies are soft. Add the garlic and birdseye chilli and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add the quinoa, broccoli, sesame oil and the juice of half of the lime wedges and cook, stirring, until everything is well combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide the green quinoa between plates.

Cook the haloumi
4

Place the same frying pan back over a medium-high heat. Add the haloumi and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden.

5

Serve the haloumi on top of the green quinoa with the remaining lime wedges.
