How to make Indian bread salad With Quinoa

We regularly eat vegetarian food. Not out of conviction, but because vegetarian food is so delicious. And in this way, we also contribute to the global problem of meat and fish scarcity. If we all eat slightly less meat and fish, for example, less fish needs to be farmed and hopefully, there will be no broilers in the future. Vegetarian food can be very surprising. For example, I recently served this Indian bread salad at home and Mr. was confused for a moment about what was on his plate. "Isn't this meat?" he asked me in amazement? At first, he did not think it was a real evening meal, but while eating he had to adjust his opinion. Because the taste and bite of this dish are very tasty and nutritious. You can easily find Quinoa in India.


What you need

  • 200gr cauliflower

What you will do


Cut the cauliflower into florets and blanch them in boiling water for 3 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse with cold water. Wash the quinoa under running water and pat dry.
Heat 5 tablespoons of sunflower oil in a wok. Fry all spices in the oil for 1 minute while stirring. Add the quinoa and fry it for 3 minutes. Add the blanched cauliflower and cook over high heat for another 2 minutes. Then the bread is added, stir well and bake for 2 more minutes. Finally, add the can of tomato cubes. Again stir well and heat the tomatoes briefly. Not too long because then it becomes a mushy mixture. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the radishes. Sprinkle with the chopped coriander leaves and crumble the feta over it.
