SWEET TATERS
Boil the kettle. Place a pan, with a lid, over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the sweet potato chunks and fry for 6-8 minutes or until starting to soften, shifting frequently.
STOCK, DROP & ROLL!
In a small bowl, combine the diced cucumber, the yoghurt, and seasoning. Set aside for serving. Dilute the stock with 200ml of boiling water.
TANDOORI TIME
Once the sweet potato has softened, add the diced onion to the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes, until soft and translucent, shifting occasionally. In the final minute, add the grated garlic and the tikka masala (to taste), shifting constantly, until fragrant.
COOKING UP A STORM
When the garlic is fragrant, add the quinoa, the diluted stock, the drained chickpeas, the cooked chopped tomato, and a sweetener of choice (to taste). Mix until fully combined and bring up to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat, cover with the lid, and leave to simmer for 15-20 minutes until the quinoa is cooked through, stirring occasionally. On completion, if there is too much liquid remaining for your liking, remove the lid and leave to simmer for a few extra minutes until desired consistency. If there is too little liquid, add an extra splash of water. Season to taste and add any remaining tikka masala if you’d like.
