African Sauce and Quinoa

Its not actuallt "African Sauce" as much- more so just the original reciepe I ripped this from was called "African Beans" which I made- but discovered that the beans gave me a HUGE stomach ache! woo! so I appropriated this....

Pretty much you chop up lots of veggies I like
Carrots
Pumkin
Potatoe
Sweet Potatoe
Garlic (few cloves thrown in there)

and chuck this all in the oven to roast for a bit- roasting is amazing and the food always tasts 1000% better!

then put all this in a pot with an onion you have fried up earlier (and some tempe for protine... cant forget that stuff)

chuck in some herbs- I like
BBQ Paprika (the BEST spice in the world)
Herbimare
Oregano
Basil (fresh or otherwise)

and fry for a bit- not too long.

THEN chuck in a can of coconut cream and a medium size jar of (good) tomatoe paist

(there are differences in tomatoe paists! not many people realise this and purchase the cheepy stuff- but they no tast good see! so go the leggos or something worth it- OH and NEVER get salt reduced tomatoe paist... it is the devil)

so then you have to simmer it for a bit- and yes it does need to simmer for all the flavors to infuse etc....mmmmm

Usually I have it with Quinoa- I like red and its cooked fairly similar to rice- chuck one cup of Quinoa and 1.5 cups of water on the stove and boil. usually its ready when the Quinoa sprout little things, tis good.

oh and its probably good to chuck in some fresh baby spinach or something- cause its always good for people's
