Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 255g quinoa
  • 80g red pepper
  • 80g spinach
  • 20g harissa paste
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 50g greek yoghurt
  • 10g olive oil
  • 30g pomegranate seeds
  • fresh mint

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the peppers and spinach, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Lower the eggs into boiling water and cook for 6½ minutes, then cool in cold water and peel.

  4. 4

    Loosen the harissa with lemon juice and brush it over the protein before cooking. Swirl a little extra harissa through the yoghurt to serve.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the peppers and spinach for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: quinoa first, then the veg and soft-boiled egg, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh mint.

  7. 7

    Bulking upgrade: add the olive oil, pomegranate seeds for extra energy-dense calories.
