Ingredients

  • 180g King Prawns
  • 150g quinoa
  • 80g courgette
  • 80g spinach
  • 2 tsp Cajun seasoning
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 50g greek yoghurt
  • chopped parsley

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the courgette 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

    Stir-fry the king prawns over high heat for 2-3 minutes until pink and curled.

  4. 4

    Coat the protein generously in Cajun seasoning. Mix the yoghurt with lemon juice and a pinch of the spice to make a cooling dip.

  5. 5

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

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: quinoa first, then the veg and king prawns, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the chopped parsley.
