Cup of Yum
1. Pour the quinoa into a fine mesh sieve.
2. Rinse under a running tap and thoroughly wash the quinoa (rubbing through it with your fingers) for 3 minutes to remove any bitter outer coating.
3. Let the quinoa drain for a few minutes to remove excess liquid.
4. Place the quinoa into a pot, add in water, oil, and salt and bring to the boil.
5. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and let cook for 15 minutes - you will see tiny spirals (aka the germ) coming out of the seeds.
6. Remove the quinoa from the heat, open the lid and fluff the grains. Then cover again and let stand for about 10 minutes.
7. The cooked quinoa should have a slight bite to it.
