Victors Shrimp Fried Quinoa Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse the quinoa well. Put the quinoa and 3 cups water in a large saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat so the water simmers and cook until the quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and spread on a rimmed baking sheet to cool.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the eggplant and cook until it begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 2 more tablespoons of the vegetable oil to the skillet and stir in the garlic, carrot, ginger and scallion whites. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 1 minute. Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil and fish sauce. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring, until they begin to change color, about 2 minutes. Add the cooled quinoa. Continue to cook, stirring, until the shrimp are fully cooked, about 3 minutes. Stir in the scallion greens. Divide the mixture among 4 bowls.
• Wipe out the skillet and heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, sprinkle with a little salt and a few turns of pepper and cook until set, about 3 minutes.
• Top each bowl with a fried egg.

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring the water to a boil, and stir in the quinoa. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat, and set aside 10 minutes, or until all liquid has been absorbed.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and saute the onion and green bell pepper until tender. Mix in the mushrooms, asparagus, raisins, and ginger, and continue cooking until asparagus is tender. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in the shrimp, and cook 5 minutes, or until opaque.
• In a large bowl, mix the quinoa with the lime juice and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Toss with the skillet mixture and parsley to serve.
