This bright tasting Thai classic is packed with fresh flavours of mint, chilli, coriander & lime. Normally served with noodles, we're using quinoa instead and adding charred pineapple. Leave your spoons in the cupboard and get scooping with little gem leaves instead! (Dairy-free: see our FAQs for details).

Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Add the quinoa to a pot with a matching lid with 250ml [500ml] cold water and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cook, covered, for 18-20 min or until all the water has absorbed and the quinoa is tender
Once cooked, remove from the heat and leave to steam-dry, uncovered, until serving
2
Meanwhile, quarter the pineapple slices (reserve the juice!)
Heat a large, wide-based pan with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the pineapple and cook for 2-4 min or until starting to brown

Once browned, push the pineapple to the side of the pan and add the pork mince with a pinch of salt
Cook the pork for 5-6 min, breaking it up with a spatula as you go
