Quinoa is a grain that's now a very popular alternative to rice or cous cous. It cooks in the same way, taking 10-15 minutes in boiling water to bring out a soft, fluffy consistency. Serve quinoa wherever rice or cous cous can be used: with curries, tagines and casseroles, or in salads.

Fit a lid and bring to a simmer.
Turn the heat right down and simmer for 10-15 minutes until all of the water has evaporated.
