Ingredients

  • quinoa — 1 cup (200 g)
  • water (enough to cook the quinoa ('sufficient water' in the source))
  • potatoes — 3 (300 g)
  • milk — 1 1/2 tbsp (printed as '1½ tbsp milk (330 g)'; the two amounts disagree - see tips)
  • oil or margarine — 4 tbsp (60 g)
  • salt (to taste)

Method

  1. Rinse the quinoa and cook it in plenty of water for 30 minutes, until the grains are very soft and mushy.
  2. Meanwhile boil the potatoes until tender, then drain them.
  3. Mash the potatoes, put them in a saucepan and beat in the milk, salt and the oil or margarine.
  4. Crush the quinoa in a bowl with a wooden spoon, add it to the potato and let the mixture bubble for 5 minutes, stirring.
  5. Serve hot.

Tips

  • General practice: if you use margarine, pick one made only from vegetable fats.
