Crunchy Cauliflower Quinoa
- 1 cup red quinoa
- 1 small cauliflower, cut into florets
- 6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 3/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted and coarsely chopped
- 1/4 cup currants
- 2 tsp finely grated lemon peel
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 7 oz feta cheese, crumbled

- Rinse the quinoa well and place in a medium saucepan with 2 cups water. Bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for 12 mins or until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is tender.
- Place the cauliflower in batches in a food processor and process until very finely chopped. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large skillet on high heat. Add the onion, then reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-15 mins or until the onions are caramelized. Add the cumin, stir to combine. Add the cauliflower, the cooked quinoa, almonds, currants, lemon peel and juice, the remaining 1/4 cup oil, feta and parsley; toss to coat well.
