Quinoa with Spanish Flavors
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup uncooked quinoa
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 small green bell pepper, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Instructions
1
Melt a substantial amount of vegetable oil in a spacious cooking vessel over an elevated heat setting. Introduce quinoa, onion, bell pepper, and garlic into the mixture; blend the ingredients together until the onion becomes soft and the quinoa acquires a light golden hue, taking around 5 to 10 minutes of continuous stirring.
2
Add water and tomato sauce into the blend; add a pinch of heat with chili powder, garlic powder, and cumin to enhance the flavor. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, then gradually decrease the heat to a low setting, cover the vessel with a lid, and let it simmer until the quinoa is tender and has absorbed all the liquid, approximately taking 30 minutes of intermittent stirring.
