CURRIED QUINOA AND CAULIFLOWER
A one dish curry meal, easy to prepare and adaptable to your tastes. Found it a few years ago in Veg Times, have made some changes as I found the original recipe a bit bland. Serve on its own with chutney, or with salad and/or roti on the side. I also like this room temperature served more as a salad. The consistency is that of tabouli. Could also roll up in a wrap. Very healthy and under 400 calories per serving!

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, with a pinch of salt. I like to use a large saute pan with a fitted lid, to save on dishes later. Add in quinoa and cook until tender, (about 12-13 minutes). Should be tender but still slightly crunchy. While that is cooking, cut up the cauliflower into small florets.
- Place the frozen peas in a colander. Drain the boiled quinoa over the peas and set aside. If you are making your broth using a powder, try to reserve 1-1 1/2 cups of this liquid to prepare your broth. (I put my measuring cup underneath the colander).
- Rinse out you pot/pan and dry it, returning it to the stove, and heating the oil over medium-high heat. Saute the onion and garlic for about 5 minutes until it starts to become translucent. Add in the whole spices and let them toast with the onions for about 30 seconds, then add in the rest of the spices and let them 'marry' for another 30 seconds or so. (Careful not to burn).
- Stir in the broth and bring to a boil. Add the cauliflower, cover and return to a boil. Once back to boiling, reduce the heat to about medium and let the cauliflower become tender, stirring occasionally. Adjust the seasoning at this point, the amount of salt required will depend on your broth. I like my cauliflower a little softer so this step takes about 8-10 minutes for me, but could be done as soon as 4 minutes - adjust the cooking time to your liking. Remove from heat once done.
- Put the plain yogurt into a bowl and temper it by adding a few tablespoons of the cauliflower liquid into it. Then add the yogurt mixture to the cauliflower. (This is so the yogurt doesn't curdle). Fold in the quinoa and the peas, then the cashews and cilantro. Check seasoning again.
- Serve with some chutney on the side and enjoy! Note -- I have made this using part millet as well. You just have to adjust the cooking time as millet takes longer than quinoa by about 5 minutes.

CURRIED QUINOA AND CAULIFLOWER (ALMOST RAW FOOD)
Just made this for lunch from available ingredients and was hooked. I call it almost raw because you cook the quinoa and onions in this version. To make it fully raw, sprout the quinoa and mince the onion superfine. I hope you like it!

- While cauliflower is cooking, whisk together all the dressing ingredients until smooth. Taste and adjust salt and pepper accordingly. Set aside.

- Roast the cauliflower: Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss the cauliflower florets with coconut oil, cayenne pepper and a light sprinkle of sea salt. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes on the middle rack, turning halfway, until the cauliflower is tender and golden on the edges.
- Cook the quinoa: In a large pot with a lid, warm the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it is turning translucent, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger, turmeric, curry powder and cardamom and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the coconut milk, water, rinsed quinoa and raisins. Bring the mixture to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, then remove the pot from the heat and let it rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Fluff the quinoa with a fork. Stir in the salt, vinegar and greens (if you intend to eat this dish as leftovers, I recommend storing leafy greens separate from the quinoa, as the greens don’t reheat well). Divide the quinoa into bowls and top with roasted cauliflower. Garnish with green onions and red pepper flakes if you’d like.
