🍃 Herby wholegrain mustard quinoa with balsamic glazed hake 🐟
A quick and tasty dinner packed full of fibre, flavour and protein 💪🏼
You can use a different fish, chicken or tofu and mix up the veg depending on what you have in!
Ingredients
👉🏼 100g dried quinoa (or use precooked pack)
👉🏼 Finely chopped onion, pepper, mushrooms and a large handful of spinach
👉🏼 1 stock cube
👉🏼 1tbsp wholegrain mustard
👉🏼 1tbsp garlic (purée,dried or fresh)
👉🏼 1tsp each of dried rosemary and thyme
👉🏼1 tbsp tomato puree
👉🏼 juice of half a lemon
👉🏼 squeeze of honey
👉🏼 2 fillets of hake (or alternative)
👉🏼 salt and pepper
👉🏼 balsamic glaze to finish
Add the dried quinoa to a pan of boiling water (around 500mls) and dissolve the cube in it. Allow to cook for around 20 minutes until almost all of the water is absorbed.
Meanwhile, pan fry the veggies with the garlic and herbs for 5-10 minutes.
Place the hake on a foiled sheet season with salt and pepper. Cook in air fryer or oven for 10-12 minutes at 180 degrees.
Add in the wholegrain mustard, lemon, honey and tomato paste to the vegetable mixture with a splash of water to combine.
Then stir in the cooked quinoa and allow everything to simmer for a few minutes.
Once your fish is cooked, serve this on top of the quinoa with an expertly drizzle of balsamic glaze 👌🏼
