7<br />
Tomatoes stuffed with quinoa<br />
Serves 2<br />
2 beefsteak or other large tomatoes<br />
100g quinoa<br />
250ml vegetable stock<br />
2 tablespoons olive oil<br />
1 onion (approx 100g) chopped<br />
1 garlic clove<br />
1 tablespoon lemon juice<br />
Grated zest of ½ lemon<br />
2 tablespoons pine nuts<br />
1 tablespoon chopped fresh coriander<br />
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley<br />
Freshly ground black pepper<br />
1. Heat the stock in a saucepan, add the<br />
quinoa, stir and simmer for 15 minutes or<br />
until the quinoa is tender. If all the stock is<br />
not absorbed, drain the quinoa.<br />
2. While the quinoa is cooking, slice the<br />
top off the tomatoes and<br />
scoop out and eat or compost<br />
the seeds, taking care not to<br />
break through the pith and<br />
skin. Grind some black pepper<br />
into the tomatoes. Preheat the<br />
oven to 180°C/gas mark 4.<br />
3. Heat the oil in a saucepan,<br />
add the onion and garlic and<br />
cook until golden. Add the quinoa, lemon<br />
juice, zest, pine nuts and chopped herbs<br />
and mix well.<br />
4. Spoon the mixture into the tomatoes<br />
and top with the ‘lids’. Put them<br />
in an oven proof dish, cover<br />
and cook for 15 minutes or<br />
until the tomatoes are soft.<br />
Serve with a small<br />
baked potato and a<br />
green salad or extra<br />
quinoa.<br />
