BOUNCY BLACK QUINOA
Rinse the quinoa and place in a pot with the stock. Submerge in 350ml of water and stir through. Place over a medium-high heat, cover, and bring to a simmer. Cook for 20-25 minutes until the quinoa is tender and its tails have popped out, adding more water if required during cooking. On completion, drain if necessary and return to the pot. Replace the lid and allow to stand off the heat for at least 5 minutes.
SEEDS & Sumac MAYO
Boil the kettle. Place the sunflower seeds in a deep pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool. Place 10ml of Sumac in a small bowl and mix in 1 tsp of boiling water. Allow to soften for 2 minutes. Mix in the mayo until well combined. Season to taste with salt and set aside for serving.
A SALAD WITH SASS!
In a salad bowl, whisk together the vinegar, 5ml of a sweetener of choice, the thyme, and a generous drizzle of olive oil. Toss through the sliced Cabbage, ¾ of the sliced spring onion, and ¾ of the toasted seeds. Season and set aside.
GET SLICING
When the quinoa has 10 minutes remaining, halve the rinsed apple and set one ½ aside for use in another meal. Slice the rest into thin matchsticks and add to the bowl of Cabbage. Toss to combine and set aside for serving.
SENSATIONAL SQUID
Place the flour in a dish and season lightly. Return the pan to a high heat with 5-6cm of oil covering the base. Rinse the squid to remove any residue from the packet and pat dry with paper towel. Thoroughly coat in the flour, gently shaking off any excess on completion. When the oil is hot, fry for 2-4 minutes until cooked through and crispy. (Use tongs if you have them!) Remove from the pan on completion and place on some paper towel to drain. Season to taste with salt and the remaining Sumac.
SPECTACULAR SQUID SALAD
