  12. What&#39;s Quinoa ? &lt;/h2&gt;
  13. &lt;br /&gt;
  14. Quinoa (pronounced &quot;&lt;span class=&quot;IPA&quot; title=&quot;English pronunciation respelling&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-variant: small-caps;&quot;&gt;keen&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;-wah&quot;) &lt;/i&gt;is a grain-like crop grown for its edible seeds. It&#39;s a highly nutritious carbohydrate, that helps you to stay lean as well as maximize your energy levels at the same time. Its&lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinoa#Nutritional_value&quot;&gt; nutritional profile&lt;/a&gt; is similar to that of&lt;a href=&quot;http://tastyvegcooking.blogspot.in/2011/10/brown-rice-and-apple-in-milk-hearty.html&quot;&gt; brown rice&lt;/a&gt;, but quinoa is higher in protein. Quinoa is great for cardio-vascular health, boosts your anti-oxidant levels, reduces the risk of gallstones, full of fiber and could help lower migraine. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;IPA&quot; title=&quot;English pronunciation respelling&quot;&gt;It&#39;s gluten-free and cholesterol-free! Most importantly, it&#39;s&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt; delicious&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

  21. &lt;span class=&quot;IPA&quot; title=&quot;English pronunciation respelling&quot;&gt;How to cook Quinoa ? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
  22. &lt;br /&gt;
  23. &lt;span class=&quot;IPA&quot; title=&quot;English pronunciation respelling&quot;&gt;First, it is essential to rinse quinoa atleast 3 times by changing water, in order to get rid of the bitter taste from the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinoa#Saponin_content&quot;&gt;saponin coating&lt;/a&gt;. It&#39;s &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;cooked much like rice&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;, with twice the volume of water (or slightly less). It can be cooked in a closed pan or a rice cooker or a microwave. When cooked, quinoa is fluffy, crunchy and a little creamy!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  24. &lt;span class=&quot;IPA&quot; title=&quot;English pronunciation respelling&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  25. &lt;span class=&quot;IPA&quot; title=&quot;English pronunciation respelling&quot;&gt;Here&#39;s a simple salad with veggies, fruits and nuts added to cooked quinoa. This is one of the quick ones I make whenever I want to stay away from Indian masalas, yet eat something tasty. Feel free to add or deduct veggies, fruits and nuts to suit your family&#39;s taste buds! :-)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

  103. &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;IPA&quot; title=&quot;English pronunciation respelling&quot;&gt;Boil water with a drop of oil in a pan. Meanwhile, rinse quinoa about 3 times to get rid of the foamy saponins. This step is important, else you&#39;ll end up with bitter-tasting quinoa. Add rinsed quinoa to boiled water and close the pan. In 12 to 15 minutes, it&#39;s fully cooked (all the water is absorbed) and looks fluffy with thin white rings around. Let the cooked quinoa cool for atleast 10 minutes. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  167. &lt;/div&gt;
  168. This is a very simple salad with lemon juice dressing and spiced with nothing more than salt and pepper. Cooked chickpeas and honey-sweet tomatoes (cherry tomatoes) are the highlight. We wanted a light (nothing oily or spicy) but a good breakfast and I made this today. &lt;br /&gt;
  169. &lt;br /&gt;
  170. This is super-quick to make, with no cooking, except for presuure-cooking the chickpeas (Channa/ Chole). &lt;br /&gt;
  171. Therefore, utterly easy and it&#39;s so full of goodness of raw veggies :)&lt;br /&gt;

  186. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Ingredients -&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
  187. &lt;br /&gt;
  188. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  189. &lt;li&gt;Chickpeas (White channa) - 3 handfuls, &lt;i&gt;soaked overnight and cooked with salt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  190. &lt;ul&gt;
  191. &lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;If you don&#39;t have enough time to soak the cholé for 8 hours, soak for &lt;b&gt;3&lt;/b&gt; hours and add a pinch of baking soda to the water when you pressure-cook.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  192. &lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Drain water and add only the cooked chol&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;é to the salad. But the water is actually channa stock so full of nutrition, hence can be saved to be used later in a gravy, instead of water. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  193. &lt;/ul&gt;
  194. &lt;li&gt;Cherry tomatoes - 200 grams &lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  195. &lt;ul&gt;
  196. &lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Please choose those that are said to be sweet and crispy, the Thailand-made ones are really good&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  197. &lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Cut into half and add to salad &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  198. &lt;/ul&gt;
  199. &lt;li&gt;Red Onion - 2 , finely chopped&lt;/li&gt;
  200. &lt;li&gt;Tomato - 1 and 1/2 , finely chopped&lt;/li&gt;
  201. &lt;li&gt;Red Capsicum/ Red Bell pepper - 1/2, very finely chopped&lt;/li&gt;
  202. &lt;ul&gt;
  203. &lt;li&gt; &lt;i&gt;Green or Yellow works as well&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  204. &lt;/ul&gt;
  205. &lt;li&gt; Carrot - 2, shredded fine&lt;/li&gt;
  206. &lt;li&gt;Fresh coriander/ cilantro - 4 mini-bunches, chopped &lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  207. &lt;ul&gt;
  208. &lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Please add the stalks too, as they give the crunchy texture&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  209. &lt;/ul&gt;
  210. &lt;/ul&gt;
  211. &lt;br /&gt;
  212. &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dressing -&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

  246. I was looking for something different to make for breakfast and was also watching out for &quot;attractive&quot; ways to use up my Brown Rice. I came across &lt;a href=&quot;http://carrotsnchocolate.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; recipe and modified it a bit to suit my palate. So, here&#39;s what I did. I had a feeling this would taste good and it really did :)&lt;br /&gt;

  253. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  254. &lt;li&gt;I cooked brown rice with milk and water (1 cup rice, 1 cup milk, 1.5 cups water). Remember, how delicious &lt;a href=&quot;http://tastyvegcooking.blogspot.in/2012/01/ven-pongal-kaara-pongal-pongalo-pongal.html&quot;&gt;Ven Pongal&lt;/a&gt; tastes when you &lt;b&gt;cook &lt;/b&gt;rice&lt;b&gt; in milk&lt;/b&gt;?&amp;nbsp; I had pre-soaked brown rice in water, as usual for 2 hours. &lt;/li&gt;
  255. &lt;li&gt;Then, I melted butter (~2 tsp)on a pan and added chopped apple pieces (from 2 apples) and allowed them to soften a bit.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  256. &lt;li&gt;Drizzled honey over the apples (as a healthy alternative to sugar) and then tossed the rice and apples together.&lt;/li&gt;
  257. &lt;li&gt;Took a cereal bowl, added some fresh cold milk and added this rice and apple mixture. That&#39;s it :)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  258. &lt;/ul&gt;
  259. &amp;nbsp;I did everything in the same pan (I used a 28 cm big pan with a glass lid) - first, cooked rice, then, dug a hole and melted butter and sautéed apples and mixed them. &lt;br /&gt;

  269. Let me warn you, this is not my typical kinda food but it was realllly awesome! You can call it whatever you want - porridge, cereals... what&#39;s in a name, after all ? :)&amp;nbsp; I personally think, this won&#39;t go well if you use normal white rice. The nutty texture of brown rice, the caramelized apples and sweetness of honey were just a perfect combination! I was soo full until after 1 in the afternoon that day and felt happy about not succumbing to another cup of tea at 10:30 am :)&lt;br /&gt;

  277. I&#39;m certainly not an expert in American food but we both love their potato salad, onion rings, mashed potato, pancakes, pumpkin pie, apple coleslaw and much more...That explains why Billy Bombers is our favorite place to dine on a weekend.&lt;br /&gt;
  278. &lt;br /&gt;
  279. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  280. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmmU4JUR3JSUgVbGoqkN0-tpVxzUigce_rXIPgYQU-Gwj4YGXb9nAW5DgBrzZvhg27tvMDNuQs8X1DYhCN74CG_M28Ay0aFrwVeiWQY1UUMSMWXLGcxbu0eqiOQc2WoOCFnwF9-q4gscE/s1600/IMG_0449.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;240&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmmU4JUR3JSUgVbGoqkN0-tpVxzUigce_rXIPgYQU-Gwj4YGXb9nAW5DgBrzZvhg27tvMDNuQs8X1DYhCN74CG_M28Ay0aFrwVeiWQY1UUMSMWXLGcxbu0eqiOQc2WoOCFnwF9-q4gscE/s320/IMG_0449.JPG&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  281. &lt;br /&gt;
  282. I wanted to try potato salad at home since it appeared to be simple and promptly added Red Skinned potatoes to my Mustafa shopping list, since we were going there anyway. In fact, it is very simple. I have adapted the recipe to suit my taste but the original recipe is Rachael Ray&#39;s.&lt;br /&gt;
  283. &lt;br /&gt;
  284. But you may ask, why red skin potato, why not the usual brown-skinned Russet potatoes? The differences are that red potatoes are sweeter and less starchy and more nutritious too. Also, they are cooked with their skin on (slightly scrubbed though) because it’s relatively thin and soft and adds extra fiber to the dish. On the other hand, brown potatoes are best suited for frying/roasting, baking and they make the perfect fluffy mashed potato. More on that later...&lt;br /&gt;
  285. &lt;br /&gt;
  286. Now, let&#39;s move on to the recipe.&lt;br /&gt;
  287. &amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
  288. &lt;b&gt;What I Used -&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  289. &lt;br /&gt;
  290. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  291. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7-7q14pGaArHeb8zR08pp5NBKwgxO6MhYppyfc_9ZpekHueIiQ-idXV3I-XGBdLs9coK23Hr5ARObLFFUyEaXAR0ZXjgxzy3mDoQjcQShwLOw6jzW3Ou8KWAJXYhb6BJ4I9XnJ_KD-Vw/s1600/IMG_0440.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;240&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7-7q14pGaArHeb8zR08pp5NBKwgxO6MhYppyfc_9ZpekHueIiQ-idXV3I-XGBdLs9coK23Hr5ARObLFFUyEaXAR0ZXjgxzy3mDoQjcQShwLOw6jzW3Ou8KWAJXYhb6BJ4I9XnJ_KD-Vw/s320/IMG_0440.JPG&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  292. &lt;br /&gt;
  293. Red Potatoes - 3&lt;br /&gt;
  294. Yellow Onion - 1/2 (chopped)&lt;br /&gt;
  295. Garlic - 3 pods, chopped&lt;br /&gt;
  296. Italian seasonings - 3/4 tsp&lt;br /&gt;
  297. Mayonnaise - 3 heaped table spoons (Choose the one that has Dijon mustard and Vinegar as well) *&lt;br /&gt;
  298. Olive oil - 2 tsp&lt;br /&gt;
  299. Salt - to taste&lt;br /&gt;
  300. Pepper (I used 4 black pepper pods and powdered them with a small hammer) - to taste&lt;br /&gt;
  301. &lt;br /&gt;
  302. &lt;b&gt;How I Made It -&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  303. &lt;br /&gt;
  304. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  305. &lt;li&gt;Wash the potatoes thoroughly and scrub the skin lightly (with a knife) so that there is no dirt.&lt;/li&gt;
  306. &lt;/ul&gt;
  307. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  308. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ7n7zrMBurEzqTEysXzIaggLeofM3PGWTLSecDwiqfTD-jYXGQ1xmkJj65jlMKJV1aLdtXeDvVvlvjbV4ORrV8qNTHX5Ia0RI4k2uRGoICMfarTRp4Mp2Q3fYsXD269nCpW2UlIydrZU/s1600/IMG_0439.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;240&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ7n7zrMBurEzqTEysXzIaggLeofM3PGWTLSecDwiqfTD-jYXGQ1xmkJj65jlMKJV1aLdtXeDvVvlvjbV4ORrV8qNTHX5Ia0RI4k2uRGoICMfarTRp4Mp2Q3fYsXD269nCpW2UlIydrZU/s320/IMG_0439.JPG&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  309. &lt;br /&gt;
  310. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  311. &lt;li&gt;Cook them in a pan with enough water and salt (I added 1/2 tsp). Note that mayo usually contains salt. The potatoes should still be firm but just cooked at the same time. I boiled water first, added the potatoes, switched off after exactly 12 minutes and let them sit in the hot water for 5 more minutes. Drain the water and let cool (When too hot, they can get mashed up very easily).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  312. &lt;/ul&gt;
  313. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  314. &lt;li&gt;Take a skillet, heat olive oil and fry garlic and onions for 3-4 minutes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  315. &lt;/ul&gt;
  316. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  317. &lt;li&gt;Take a bowl, add mayonnaise and add the fried garlic and onions to it. Add the Italian seasonings as well.&amp;nbsp; Add pepper powder. Mix them thoroughly.&lt;/li&gt;
  318. &lt;ul&gt;
  319. &lt;li&gt;If you wish to avoid mayo (or its cholesterol), stir in a diced avocado* instead.&lt;/li&gt;
  320. &lt;/ul&gt;
  321. &lt;/ul&gt;
  322. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  323. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg25lfH7PDxAxMUELe5XJMN4L8yPsA4aTegblqjkcpDmTOJGchvllno1thUJABDXqvg9uRObeaLtKU-mctEqLZ17wYsP3b8BXZ6eo-XcffSsXeknGQU564Pr-E0ZgomvC5LORXe_x3g6Ac/s1600/IMG_0441.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg25lfH7PDxAxMUELe5XJMN4L8yPsA4aTegblqjkcpDmTOJGchvllno1thUJABDXqvg9uRObeaLtKU-mctEqLZ17wYsP3b8BXZ6eo-XcffSsXeknGQU564Pr-E0ZgomvC5LORXe_x3g6Ac/s320/IMG_0441.JPG&quot; width=&quot;240&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  324. &lt;br /&gt;
  325. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  326. &lt;li&gt;Cut the cooked potatoes into big chunks and add to the bowl. Toss them carefully so that the potatoes don&#39;t get mashed. Mix them gently so that the potatoes are covered with the dressing.&lt;/li&gt;
  327. &lt;/ul&gt;
  328. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  338. &lt;li&gt;Refrigerate for 8 hours before serving. This gives time for the flavors to blend in well. &lt;/li&gt;

Here&#39;s a simple salad that I tried with easy-to-get ingredients.&lt;br /&gt;

  356. Onion- 1/2 medium&lt;br /&gt;
  357. Red, Yellow and Orange Capsicum - 1/2 cup (chopped)&lt;br /&gt;
  358. Coriander leaves/Cilantro - a few&lt;br /&gt;
  359. &lt;br /&gt;
  360. Pav Bhaji/Chaat Masala - 1/2 tsp&lt;br /&gt;
  361. Salt - to taste&lt;br /&gt;
  362. &lt;br /&gt;
  363. &lt;br /&gt;
  364. &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;For the Vinaigrette -&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  365. &lt;br /&gt;

  376. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Soak Red Beans overnight for 12 hours or more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  377. &lt;li&gt;I had a bad experience with a particular variety of red beans not being cooked well. I learnt that the Chinese Red beans needs to be soaked for 24-36 hours :(&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  378. &lt;li&gt;I changed water every 12 hours and at the end of 36 hours, there was a significant difference in the size and softness of the red beans. &lt;/li&gt;
  379. &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

  388. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Pressure-cook the soaked beans with salt.&lt;/li&gt;
  389. &lt;li&gt;Chop tomatoes, onions, bell peppers and cilantro finely.&lt;/li&gt;
  390. &lt;/ul&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; =&amp;gt; Dunk onions in hot water for 5 minutes to get rid of the raw smell.&lt;br /&gt;
  391. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sprinkle Pav bhaji masala or Chaat masala over them.&lt;/li&gt;

  394. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Let&#39;s prepare the vinaigrette now by adding all the ingredients in that order, in a bowl. Beat them well together. Continue to whisk until it is smooth and tastes good. Add salt if required. &lt;/li&gt;
  395. &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
