WALNUT ROSEMARY QUINOA



Walnut Rosemary Quinoa image

Quinoa, pronounced keen-wa, should be thoroughly rinsed prior to preparation to help remove any powdery residue that can remain following the removal of a protective substance called saponin (protects grain from insects and weather). Rinse in a fine strainer until water runs clear. Use two parts liquid to one part quinoa. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes or until grains are translucent and germ has spiralled out from each grain. All the water should have disappeared.

My Aunt Mary started making this recipe years ago. Each time we visited, she would have a batch ready for us. The use of cayenne adds an unexpected zing to the savory combo of rosemary and walnuts.

Provided by Anna Glover

Time 20m

Yield Makes 4 small bags

Number Of Ingredients 4

vegetable oil, for the baking sheet (optional)
150g caster sugar
200g walnut halves
1 tbsp finely chopped rosemary

Steps:

  • Lightly oil a baking sheet, or line with baking parchment. Tip the sugar into a heavy-based frying pan set over a medium-low heat, and cook until dissolved and lightly golden. Don't stir - tilt the pan for an even colour.
  • Add the walnuts, rosemary, 1 tsp sea salt flakes and ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper, and stir briefly. Carefully pour the mixture onto the prepared sheet. Use two lightly oiled teaspoons to separate the nuts if you prefer them packaged individually, but don't touch them as they'll be very hot. For a more rustic look, leave to cool, then roughly bash into chunks using a rolling pin. Pack into small containers or bags. Will keep for up to three weeks in a dry, cool place.

Tips:

  • Toast the quinoa before cooking: This will give it a nutty flavor and a slightly chewy texture.
  • Use a flavorful broth: Vegetable broth or chicken broth will add a lot of flavor to the quinoa. You can also use water, but it will be less flavorful.
  • Add vegetables and herbs to the quinoa: This will make the dish more colorful and nutritious. Some good options include chopped carrots, celery, onion, spinach, and rosemary.
  • Don't overcook the quinoa: Quinoa is done cooking when the grains are tender and slightly chewy. Overcooked quinoa will be mushy.
  • Serve the quinoa warm or at room temperature: Quinoa can be served as a side dish or as a main course. It's also a great addition to salads and soups.
