Step:

  1. If using cous cous, simply add hot water or vegetable stock as indicated on the packet instructions to cook. It'll be ready in 10 minutes, much quicker than quinoa which needs to simmer

  2. For the quinoa, rinse well to get rid of the bitterness, then add to a pan with 525ml (2 & 1/4 cups) hot water or vegetable stock, bring to the boil then cover and turn down to simmer for 20 minutes or until the liquid has been absorbed
