Vietnamese Style Soup With Broccoli And Quinoa Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the rice noodles as the label directs.
• Meanwhile, place a large pot over high heat. Poke the meat all over with a fork to tenderize it and season with salt and pepper. Sear the meat until charred but still rare, 2 to 3 minutes per side, then transfer to a plate. Add the onion and ginger to the pot; cook about 4 minutes. Add the broth, 3 cups water, the star anise and cinnamon, reduce the heat and simmer about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice the scallions and jalapenos (remove seeds for less heat) and tear the cilantro. Thinly slice the meat against the grain. Drain the noodles.
• Add the fish sauce to the broth and boil 5 minutes. Discard the ginger, star anise and cinnamon stick. Remove and slice the onion. Divide the noodles among 4 bowls; top with the broth, beef, scallions, cilantro, bean sprouts, jalapenos and onion.

Steps:

• Have the broth at a simmer in a soup pot. Place the tofu in a bowl and season with soy sauce if desired.
• Steam the broccoli for 1 to 2 minutes, just until crisp-tender.
• Heat the quinoa and divide among 6 soup bowls. Add the tofu, steamed broccoli and radish julienne to the bowls and ladle in the hot broth. Sprinkle on half the cilantro, half the basil leaves and the green onions. Pass the chopped chilies, mint sprigs, the remaining basil and cilantro for guests to add as desired, and the lime wedges for guests to squeeze on.

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Heat oil in a heavy 4-quart pot. Add onion; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in vegetable stock, broccoli, sweet potato, and salt. Bring soup to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until broccoli and sweet potato are very tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove soup from the heat. Puree with a hand-held immersion blender until smooth. Season with nutmeg, garam masala, and pepper.
• Combine 1/2 cup water and cashews in a high-speed blender; puree until smooth.
• Pour cashew mixture into the soup and bring to a boil.
• Place 1/3 cup cooked quinoa in the center of each serving bowl; ladle soup around quinoa.

Steps:

• Combine broccoli, broth, and quinoa in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the saucepan, and cook at a simmer until the broth has been absorbed and the quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Stir Cheddar cheese into the quinoa, replace the lid, and set aside until the cheese melts, 2 to 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Add broccoli, water, quinoa, and chicken bouillon cubes to the onion mixture; bring to a boil stirring to dissolve the bouillon cubes. Place a cover on the skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer until quinoa is fluffy, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Stir evaporated milk and flour into the quinoa. Increase heat and bring the mixture to a boil; cook and stir until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to serve.
