Howdy folks how's it going welcome to my *** kitchen today i'm showing you how to make
a vegetarian quinoa chilli good times. Looks amazing right and i've had so many recipe
requests come through at the moment I decided to merge a couple together so i've got Craig
Wigmore, Skitzyskitzo, Sina Mandarina, SpiritHolly amongst others who have asked me to make recipes
with quinoa vegetarian recipes and a healthy chilli so i've merged these together and it's
bloomin good. It's cheap. it's filling, it's quick, it's easy, it's delicious, it's so
customisable you can add meat in it you can make it vegan by not adding the sour cream
at the end all that stuff it's cute to look at, it's pretty, it's cute actually it's not
as cute as Chloe trying to sing vanilla ice, Chloe can you say ice ice baby, ice ice baby
yeah! But it is really good I hope i've sold it
to you my kids absolutely loved it at the end hence the reason I made mine kind of mild
if you wanna have a go at making this hit pause on the video now write all these ingredients
down lets do it. First up we're gonna work on our quinoa now
I don't know if it's just me whenever I see the word quinoa I don't wanna say quinoa I
wanna say key knower it's like mentally i'm like key knower key knower key knower not
someone who knows loads of stuff about keys hi would you like to know something about
keys, no just quinoa just I dunno.... plonk your water into a saucepan and then
add on top your rinsed quinoa you want to put this onto a low flame on your hob and
then cover just simmer it for a good 15 minutes until it's all fully absorbed. So while that
is happening grab yourself a large pan add in your oil to get it nice and hot before
adding in the chopped red onion you wanna let that soften for a good 5 minutes before
tipping in your chopped garlic, cumin and chilli powder mixing it together until it's
nice and coated. And just to re-iterate I made this nice and
super mild you might wanna ramp up those flavours it's all about customising it and making it
the way you want it to taste good times. So give the onions, garlic and spices around
about 1 or 2 minutes together to get it nice and coated before adding in your tomatoes
your mixed beans with a little extra water from the tin, your peppers and courgettes,
oregano and a good grinding of black pepper. Give it a darn good stir together and let
it simmer away for a good 15-20 minutes for all those flavours to mingle together. I went
quite leniant with my peppers too I went for some sweet bell peppers along with some standard
ones these are really sweet with a nice crunch to them but if you really want to ramp it
up you could use scotch bonnets anything like that make this dish your own that's what it's
all about. Once you are happy with the texture of your chilli pour in you quinoa and sweetcorn
stir it all through so it's nice and combined and then warm it through for around about
5 minutes so it's all nice and combined under a low flame.
All I did was grab myself a funky little bowl, a darn good spoonful right in there, sprinkled
on a little bit of grated cheese, some sour cream and a little sprinkling of fresh chopped
coriander so so good I loved it it was stonkingly good those little beads of quinoa so so good
just working their way down there, the kids loved it too.
Chloe is that nice? hmmmm oh my goodness look at that mouthful boom. Phoebe do you like
it? yeah. How much do you like it out of 1 and 400 100 million thousand 80 thousand.
Ooooh my goodness guys this is bum smackingly good the quinoa is sort of filling all the
gaps it's holding and bringing together all those flavours it's got an amazing texture
on it too. I'm loving it and you know what the next day it's probably gonna taste even
better I don't know why it does that it's probably the flavours mingling together even
more but i'm loving it and I really hope you give it a try if you do send me a picture
