Quinoa is often referred to as a grain but it’s actually a seed originating from the Andean region of Peru. It has long been prized for its high protein content, making it perfect for a plant-based diet. Naturally gluten-free, quinoa is a rich source of B vitamin and folate. In this recipe, it completes the stuffed mushroom and balances the sundried tomatoes.
Fresh and local ingredients sourced from WA farms and local Perth suppliers.
Get startedCook Quinoa:
Preheat oven to 200°C. Rinse quinoa under cold water in a fine mesh strainer. Place quinoa, vege stock concentrate and 1 cup water in a pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer until water has evaporated and quinoa is tender, about 10 minutes. Remove pot from heat, cover and set aside.
Roast Mushrooms:
Place mushrooms, gills side down on a lined baking tray and drizzle over a little olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and roast until browned and almost tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Make Stuffing:
Meanwhile, drain and finely chop sundried tomatoes. In a large bowl, combine the sundried tomatoes, cooked quinoa and pesto and season to taste with salt and pepper.
