Serves 2 643 calories 5.5g saturated fat

Instructions

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

  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.

  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.

  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.

  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.
