Vegetarian Dirty Thai Fried Quinoa Recipe | Yummly (2024)

This was an incredible dish. Lots of flavor. I made it per the directions but added mushrooms. Will definitely be making this again.

I really liked this dish, was easy to make, gives a healthy feeling, i made some changes since i didnt have the red curry paste, i added schezwan sauce with honey. Tasted really good, will try with red curry soon !!

Overall good flavor, I did add a clove of diced garlic and some onion, as well as chicken since I’m not vegetarian. I likely would reduce the amount of quinoa if I were to make over again just because I don’t want the quinoa to be the main focus of the dish. If I make this again I would do half the quinoa, or use the recipe other than the quinoa and pour the veggies and sauce over rice.

Great & was easy to make not a lot of ingredients needed

This was a simple meal to make, and healthy and yummy. I marinated the tofu in the sauce, and added some chicken for my meat loving family, but the high protein ingredients meant I could cut down on the meat content. I would do it with only 1-1/2 cups of quinoa next time.

Lots of flavor and a nice way to spice up your meal choices. My 15 month old son even really enjoyed it

Amazing. This was ridiculously easy to make and tasted delicious!

Really good and flavorful. Use 1 cup uncooked quinoa instead of 2

It was very good. It also was very easy and quick to prepare. I will be making it again. I did ,ale double the amount of sauce as it was very dry.

Sauce was a little bland, coconut milk would be a nice addition.

waaay too much food for largest skillet. I had to mix the veggies with the quinoa and the sauce in a mixing bowl because it didn't all fit in the skillet - and I only used two bell peppers and 2/3 of the green beans recommended in the recipe. not enough flavor from the sauce. Tofu tasted dense and under cooked. I didn't want to eat my leftovers.

Soooo good. Tasted like a rich Thai dish and I even forgot to add the ginger which would have made it even better. Instead of quinoa, I used cauliflower rice to decrease the carb content. I also added scrambled eggs and shrimp. Will make it again and again!

Delicious! Even my brother who wanted meat liked it. He said it was nicely spiced. Because of the pandemic, the store was out of the stuff. No fresh ginger. I put a little bit of ground into the sauce. No red curry paste. The jar just said curry paste. It was a little bit yellow. No uncooked quinoa. I had a get the last few packages of ready to eat. It was only around 9 ounces. Definitely could have used more like 2 cups of cooked. This was only my 2nd time cooking tofu and the 1st time was 30 years ago. I remembered my ex mil saying that you should press most of the water out. I also sauted the tofu first for a couple of minutes before adding the veges. I added some red onion and carrots. Next time I will cut down on the green beans. I think 9 ounces is probably enough.

I cut the quinoa to 1.5 cups and added more veggies. I also soaked the tofu in soy sauce with shredded ginger beforehand for an enhanced flavor. Yummy!

Too much quinoa, not enoughflavor

This turned out really yummy and was pretty quick and easy. I cut the quinoa in half and added extra veggies, and it was just the right amount for my husband and I and our two young children. I will definitely make it again.

I substituted BRAGG liquid aminos for soy sauce, added carrots, onion, broccoli, serrano pepper, doubled the ginger, 6 cloves of garlic, thinly julienned beets, shredded brussels sprouts, and seasoned with cayenne. Squeezed some lemon into the sauce. If you prefer more veggies than quinoa, like my fam, cut it down to 1 cup, 2 was far too much quinoa and threw off the texture for us. Garnished with nutritional yeast, green onion, and sriracha. Yummy!

It turned out really good but it could have used a bit more sauce.

i would definitely make again

Turned out great and the 3yo loved it. The 5yo didn't appreciate the red quinoa substitution instead of the color he knows, but oh well.

It is a good idea but was too salty even with low sodium soy sauce. I added lime and some honey to round out the flavors.

I used different veggies and turned out way better than i expected😳😁

it was nice followed the recipe on yummly

Fantastic dish. Super simple. I added onions. The recipe does make a ton so maybe cut back if your only making for 2-4 people.

My sauce was only the soy sauce so take this with a grain of salt.I think it had too much quinoa.I also think it's useful to remind to chop the peppers in really tiny bits.

The green beans didn’t work, they didn’t absorb the flavors of the sauce so they ended up tasting bland. The dish itself has a good flavor and it’s very easy to incorporate a variety of vegetables. I added onion, garlic, & mushrooms and they went with the dish very well. Tofu was ok, it takes the sauce well but the texture stays soft, so if you like your tofu more textured you’ll probably need to cook separate.

Awful. Got firm tofu instead of extra firm as that’s all had in shop. It crumbled like feta. Far too much quinoa and I didn’t even use the full 2 cups recipe says. Looks and smells so unappetising I can’t see any of us wanting to eat it. Disappointing!

This dish turned out great! My 5 year old even ate it all up!!

Thank you it turned out better then iyou could wish for everyone liked it. Will make it again.

Tastes awesome. I added mushrooms and zucchini and used salmon instead of tofu
