Quinoa is a seed, not a grain. Nutritionally this seed is healthy, complete protein-packed seed, which has a good source of fiber, iron rich in phosphorous, magnesium and zinc. Quinoa is gluten free. It contains more protein than brown rice, potatoes or barley.
Quinoa is very quick and easy to prepare. This is cooked the same way as rice and can be used in wide range of dishes.
Adai dosa is an authentic south Indian breakfast. Adai consists of lentils and rice. This is a very healthy and nutritious too. The perfect combination with this dosa is said to be avial or jaggery. I first ate this when I visited a friend’s place and liked it so much that the next day itself I tried at home and from then on this adai dosa has taken place in our breakfast list. This time I tried adding quinoa, which is very nourishing, wholesome and delicious.
Try this fiber-rich quinoa adai dosa and let me know...
