Instructions
Toast your sesame-seeds. Put the seeds in a skillet and toss till they start to brown and are somewhat fragrant. Transfer to a bowl and put aside.
Heat the sesame-oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add veggies (except scallions), sauteing till they start to soften for 3-5minutes.
Don't hesitate to throw in a dash of water to give the vegetables a little-steam, this can speed-up the cooking process.
Once as they are softened, add the grated-ginger & sprinkle with pepper and salt. Saute together for a few minutes.
Add the quinoa into the pan, together with the toasted sesame-seeds, brown-rice vinegar and tamari.
Stir together to combine the flavors. Before you are ready to serve, gently fold on your scallions.
