  • Step 1

    Cook the quinoa with the measured water and salt as
    described below.

  • Step 2

    While the quinoa is cooking, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil
    in a wok until smoking hot. Pat the tofu dry with kitchen
    paper, add to the wok and fry over a high heat, turning
    and tossing, until the cubes are browned all over. Remove
    to a plate.

  • Step 3

    Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the wok, add the
    garlic, chilli and ginger and stir-fry over a medium–high
    heat for a few seconds. Add the pumpkin and sunflower
    seeds and fry for a few more seconds before adding the
    broccoli and 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce.

  • Step 4

    Cover the wok with a lid and steam for a couple of
    minutes until the broccoli is still Þ rm but no longer raw.

  • Step 5

    When the quinoa is ready, drain in a sieve to remove any
    excess water. Remove the wok from the heat and add the
    quinoa with the remaining soy sauce and the sesame oil.
    Toss well before serving.
