🍲 How to Cook Buddha Ratana Quinoa

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Buddha Ratana Quinoa

• 2 cups water

• Salt, to taste

• 1 tsp ghee or oil, optional

Method:

1. Rinse Well
   Place the quinoa in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse thoroughly under running water for 1–2 minutes. This helps remove its natural outer coating and can improve the final flavour.

2. Drain
   Drain the quinoa well after rinsing.

3. Cook
   Add 1 cup quinoa and 2 cups water to a saucepan. Add salt and ghee or oil if desired.

4. Bring to a Boil
   Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.

5. Simmer & Cover
   Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 15 minutes, or until the grains are tender and most of the water has been absorbed.

6. Rest
   Turn off the heat and leave covered for another 5 minutes.

7. Fluff & Serve
   Gently fluff the quinoa with a fork and serve warm or allow it to cool for salads and grain bowls.

💡 Cooking Tip

For light, fluffy quinoa, rinse it thoroughly before cooking and avoid excessive stirring while it simmers. If the quinoa is still slightly firm after the water has been absorbed, add a small splash of water, cover, and cook for a few more minutes.

For extra flavour, cook quinoa in vegetable stock or add whole spices such as cumin, cardamom, or a small piece of cinnamon.
