1

Start by rinsing 1 cup of quinoa under cold water in a fine-mesh strainer to remove any bitterness.

2

In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt.

3

Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook for about 15 minutes until the quinoa is fluffy and the water is absorbed.

4

While the quinoa is cooking, crack 4 eggs into a large bowl. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, and whisk until the mixture is uniform.

5

Once the quinoa is cooked, let it cool for a few minutes, then fold it into the egg mixture until combined.

6

Prepare a steaming setup: you can use a steamer basket or a heat-proof bowl placed over a pot of simmering water.

7

Pour the egg and quinoa mixture into the bowl or dish for steaming.

8

Cover the bowl with aluminum foil or a lid to trap the steam. Steam for approximately 15 minutes, or until the egg is set.

9

Finely chop 2 stalks of green onion and sprinkle them over the dish just before serving for a fresh, flavorful garnish.

• Add cooked vegetables like spinach or bell peppers to the egg mixture for added nutrition and flavor.
• Top the steamed egg with a drizzle of soy sauce or sesame oil for an umami kick.
• Incorporate cheese, such as feta or cheddar, into the egg mixture for a creamy texture.

• Make sure to whisk the eggs well to ensure a smooth texture.
• Be cautious not to overcook the quinoa; it should be fluffy and not mushy.
• Experiment with different herbs or spices to customize the flavor to your liking.
