- Recipe
- White Quinoa Grains11/2 cup
- Pre-cooked shrimp, peeled and gutted300 g
- chopped onion1 unit(s)
- coconut oil1 tablespoon
- coconut milk (homemade or in a bottle)250 ml
- water (if needed to help cook the quinoa)100 ml
- minced garlic cloves2 unit(s)
- minced ginger1 tablespoon
- sweet paprika (you can use spicy or smoked too)1 teaspoon
- curry1 teaspoon
- Cinnamon Powder1 teaspoon
- Cubed mango1 unit(s)
- grape tomatoes150 g
- Coriander (or parsley or chives) chopped to taste
- Salt and Black Pepper to taste
- Start by seasoning the shrimp. In this recipe I used pre-cooked, because it is more practical and faster. But you can definitely use fresh. Bathe the prawns in the oil and season with salt and pepper. Leave to marinate for a few minutes while you prepare the rest of the recipe.
- Sauté the onion in coconut oil, let it wither, add the garlic, ginger, paprika, salt and cinnamon.
- Add the quinoa. It must have been soaked for at least 6 hours. To make it easier, leave it overnight and change the water a few times. Stir in the stir-fry. Let it fry for a few minutes.
- Add the coconut milk and cook for a few minutes, until the quinoa is al dente. Stir occasionally so it doesn't stick. If necessary, add a little water to finish cooking and reach the desired point. No need to add any thickeners, and the texture will be perfect! It doesn't take long to cook, as the quinoa has been soaking for a long time and this speeds up the cooking well.
- When you notice that the quinoa crumbs are transparent, it's time to add the final ingredients.
