You will need: Food processor or blender
Ingredients
1 cup red quinoa, soaked overnight
1 cup red lentil, soaked overnight (optional)
1 vege stock cube
1 tomato
1/3 cup parsley leaves
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp beetroot powder (optional)
1/2tsp salt
1 large or 2 garlic cloves
1/3 cup passata
1/4 tsp mace (optional)
pinch of chilli powder and or cayenne
Method
In a medium or large saucepan, cook lentils and quinoa together till quinoa is soft, add vege stock cube. The lentils will cook faster so you may want to give the quinoa five or ten minutes head start. With a fine mesh sieve, remove half the lentil and quinoa mixture and process together with the the rest of the ingredients. And then return mixture to the pot. Simmer for 10 minutes to allow flavours to merge.
