QUICK QUINOA
Place the rinsed quinoa in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the tails have popped out, 12-15 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain (if necessary). Set aside to steam, about 5 minutes.
HERBY CHILLI DRESSING
In a small bowl, combine the tangy dressing with a drizzle of oil, the chopped chilli (to taste), the spring onion whites, the chopped coriander, a sweetener, and seasoning. Set aside.
NOMU-SPICED SCHNITZEL
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the schnitzel dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the schnitzel until browned, 30-60 seconds per side. In the final 30 seconds, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Season, remove from the pan, reserving any pan juices, and thinly slice.
GO FOR MANGO
To the cooked quinoa, add the shredded leaves, the mango pieces, and the coriander & tangy chilli dressing. Set aside.
