Quinoa, Basmati Rice and Red Lentil Pilaf
Total time: 25 minutes
Quinoa, Basmati rice and red lentils all cook in about the same amount of time, making this an easy and healthy side dish. I used black quinoa for color contrast - red or white will work equally well.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (2.8oz, 80gr) Basmati rice
- 1/4 cup (1.8oz, 50gr) quinoa
-
1/2 cup (2.8oz, 80gr) red (coral) lentils
- 2 1/4 cups (18oz, 540ml) chicken stock
- 1/2 onion
- 2 tsp olive oil
Instructions:
- Roughly chop onion and sauté in oil in a medium saucepan.
- When tender, add all remaining ingredients, cover and simmer until done and all stock is absorbed.
- Check when almost done and add more stock if needed.
