**Hey everyone: It’s a quick video this week because I was fairly busy with work.  Since I’m aware that it passes by really, really fast, I’ve written out the recipe so you can digest it in your own time, lol - the *actual* cooking time ranges from about 15 minutes to 20 minutes.  

Curry Quinoa Recipe

Ingredients:
1/4 cup quinoa
3/4 cup water
1/2 tsp ginger
2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 shallot
2 potatoes
1 tsp curry powder
1 tomato
1 cup coconut milk
1 tsp soy sauce
handful of kale
touch of fish sauce

Optional Garnish:
Thai basil
Green onion

Directions:
* Rinse quinoa with water to remove bitter saponins.
* Toss into pot with water and cover.  Simmer over medium-high heat until the water evaporates (about 15 minutes).

-While you’re waiting for the quinoa to cook-

* Heat olive oil in pan with grated ginger and chopped garlic over medium-high heat.
* Add chopped shallot and cubed potatoes to the hot pan.
* Add curry powder, tomato and coconut milk.
* Wait for potatoes to soften and add water, if necessary.
* Add soy sauce and a handful of kale.
* Once the kale is soft, remove from heat, add a splash of fish sauce and combine.
* Toss into bowl and garnish with raw Thai basil and green onion, if desired.
