I was blessed to start off my plant-based advocate career with premium new health brand Spoon Health. I was assigned to produce recipes which incorporated their quinoa products, including Royal Quinoa. The team wanted to make a supergrain like quinoa more appealing to the Malaysian public, especially since it was a superb healthier substitute for plain white rice. The idea of adopting the idea of ‘Nasi Goreng’ (‘Fried Rice’ in Bahasa) to quinoa struck almost instantly. And just like how overnight rice works better in fried rice, thanks to it having slightly less moisture than freshly-cooked rice, the same goes for overnight quinoa.
Highly nutritious and satisfying, this dish is made to appeal to those who love old-fashioned fried rice, now just with a bit more bite!
This recipe was one of six I developed in collaboration with Malaysian health food brand Spoon Health.
