Directions
Note 1: Original recipe used 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a large nonstick skillet (we added a little water to
compensate for the lessened oil). Add the onions and cook over low heat,
stirring often, until meltingly soft and deep golden, about 30 min, add a
little bit of water as the onions begin to look dry. Season with salt and
pepper and transfer to a plate.
Heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan. Add the quinoa and cook over
high heat, stirring, until light golden and fragrant, 3 - 4 min. Add the
water and 3/4 tsp salt and bring to a boil. Cover and cook over low heat
until all of the water has been absorbed and the grains are tender, 12 - 15
min. Fluff the quinoa with a fork and stir in the onions. Season with salt
and pepper. Transfer the quinoa to a bowl and serve at once.
Serves 8 (supposed to)
This was wonderful!! We really enjoyed it...but it wouldn't begin to serve
8 in our house.
