How to Prepare Quinoa & Avocado Chili Con Carne [Vegan]
- Start by running water through the quinoa. You can run this under the tap for a little while. Drain out the water and leave to sit.
- Using a pot or rice cooker, add the brown rice and double the volume of water. Cook for 20-minutes. We find sometimes cooking brown rice can take a little longer so just check back in 20-minutes to see how the rice is doing a little bit of water if required.
- Next prepare all of the ingredients by finely chopping them. You should also roughly chop the parsley.
- Start by frying onions in a little bit of oil. Then add the peppers and carrots.
- Prepare your vegetable stock. This includes boiling 300ml of water and stirring in the vegetable stock.
- Add the soya single cream.
- When the vegetables are lightly fried and in the chopped tomatoes and vegetable stock.
- Next, add the butter beans and then the quinoa.
- Add all the herbs, spices, and optional nutritional yeast.
- Put the lid onto your pan and leave on medium heat simmering for the next 20 minutes.
- Check occasionally to give the mixture a quick stir to ensure it doesn't stick to the bottom of your pan.
- When the mixture is nearly ready add a squeeze of lime juice and lime zest.
- Check to make sure the quinoa is cooked. If not, then add a little extra liquid and leave for another 5 minutes.
- Plate up your rice and then add helpings of the chili.
- Feel free to garnish the dish with half an avocado which we cut into 1cm slices and extra squeeze of lime juice.
