Instructions

1 ✓

Rinse quinoa thoroughly in hot water, then cook in salted water for about 15 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.

2 ✓

Chop vegetables (carrot, broccoli, pepper, zucchini). Finely mince onion and garlic.

3 ✓

Heat oil in the pan. Sauté onion, garlic, and ginger for 2 minutes, then stir in curry paste.

4 ✓

Toss in carrots and broccoli; stir-fry briefly. Add softer vegetables (pepper, zucchini).

Tip: Harder vegetables need more time to cook.
5 ✓

Pour in coconut milk and simmer uncovered for 6-8 minutes until sauce thickens and veggies are crisp-tender.

Tip: Reducing the coconut milk concentrates the flavors.
6 ✓

To serve, mound quinoa on one side of the bowl and curry vegetables on the other. Top with toasted sesame seeds, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime.

Tip: Lime acidity cuts through the richness of the coconut milk.
