Instructions
Preparation
1. Rinse the quinoa and lobia thoroughly and soak them separately in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Pressure cook lobia for 5 whistles.
Start by making hung curd. To do this, take regular yogurt and strain it to remove excess water. You can use a muslin cloth or a fine mesh strainer. Place the yogurt in the cloth or strainer and let it sit over a bowl for about 2-3 hours or until it thickens and most of the liquid has drained out. You'll be left with thick, creamy hung
Cooking Steps
Drain the water and rinse the quinoa and lobia again.
In a medium-sized pot, add 2 cups of water and bring it to a boil. Add the quinoa and lobia and let it cook for 15-20 minutes or until they become soft and tender.
Drain any excess water and transfer the cooked quinoa and lobia to a bowl.
Add the chopped vegetables, salt, and pepper to the bowl and mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk the hung curd until smooth.
Pour the hung curd over the quinoa and lobia mixture and mix well.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve.
