Quinoa Salad with Fried Tofu Broccoli and Peas

Posted 2016-10-07 by silvifollow
This is a perfect dinner that you can make in under 30 minutes; quick, easy and so delicious.



Ingredients

200g quinoa
100g tofu, sliced
1/2 a head of broccoli
50g peas
30g pomegranate seeds
Salt, pepper, chili flakes, herbs de Provence
1 tablespoon of grapeseed oil, for frying

Method
  • Measure the quinoa, pour it into a fine strainer and wash under cold water to get rid of the dirt. Add it to a pot, add 400ml of water, a pinch of salt and bring to a boil.
  • When it starts to boil, turn the heat to medium-low, add the lid to the pot and let it cook for 15 minutes. Set aside to cool just a touch.
  • Steam the broccoli for 7 minutes and the peas, for 3.
  • Add the quinoa and the veggies into a big bowl with the pomegranate seeds. Stir to combine.
  • In a pan heat the oil and add the seasoned tofu to fry on both sides.
  • Fry them until they're golden brown and crispy delicious. You can add whatever seasonings you like best. These were my favourites.



  • Add the quinoa salad to a plate and the fried tofu and serve warm.
