Fernando Canales, chef of Atelier and La Despensa de Etxanobe (Bilbao), invites us today to taste a delicious quinoa paella for four people. The only condition ... you have to prepare it yourself!

INGREDIENTS

300 g quinoa

50 g spinach

50 g carrot

50 g red pepper

Salt

Curry

Triple water than quinoa

50 g mushrooms

1 clove garlic

40 g Virgin olive oil (Arbequina)

PROCESS

We prepare the vegetable. We chop it well. We cut the spinach raw into small pieces (like onion). The carrot, the red pepper and the mushrooms are the same. We leave the garlic clove whole.

We fry the carrots, the red pepper and the mushrooms first in olive oil. When the vegetables are sautéed, we add the garlic.

Add the spinach (without the garlic burning).

With all this, we add the quinoa, which we have previously washed well.

We fry everything and add 3 parts of water to 1 of quinoa and let it rest for 7 minutes.

We place everything in an elongated container so that it is "paella type".

Let it rest for 4 minutes.

ACCOMPANIMENT

Salted anchovy aioli:

Crush 8 anchovies in a half pot of mayonnaise with the Turmix to make it more liquid.
