  I love all food, especially anything nutritious but i would urge anyone who has never tried Quinoa to cook a small amount to taste before including it in a recipe. It is a very aquired taste and has the texture of wallpaper paste.

  i haven't made the recipe but quinoa is a wonderful grain, however i agree it takes time to appreciate. since i'm vegetarian, i try to use it a lot though as it has such a high protein profile.

  I made it to the recipe. Was a little nervous mixing in the quinoa which I had never used before, but was pleasantly surprised.

  Same thing as jeans/kitchen: made it, it was okay, but nothing to get particulary exited about...

  Cooked this for 2, was nice but not a new favourite of ours. Made with cous cous not quinoa and also used tikka masala paste not balti but both substitutes worked fine!

  Cooked this last week - Yummy. My hubby is a bit fussy about trying different foods - he thoroughly enjoyed this meal. Great thing with this one pot meal was the lack of washing up.

  Was unsure whether I would enjoy, never cooked quinoa before. This meal went down a storm even the tilers enjoyed the only thing left on 3 plates was cashew nuts. I have cooked again and had the same response.

  Even my boyfriend enjoyed - despite his initial look of disgust at the quinoa. I made for two - using a whole tin of tomatoes but only 300ml of water - and half of everything else.

  Made this for a small family get-together and it was a complete success. Even my husband loved it, and he is the most picky eater I know!
