Recipe

• 1 combine the quinoa, the 1-1/2 cup of milk, the cardamom, cloves, 4-spice, cinnamon, and vanilla in a large saucepan. bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered until quinoa is entirely cooked (the grains should be entirely transparent), about 20 to 30 minutes. stir frequently.
• 2 remove cardamom and cloves. liquefy in blender with the remaining milk. pass through a very fine sieve.
• 3 just before serving, return to blender with the bananas (calculate 1/2 a banana per portion) i live alone, so i usually just take part of quinoa mix and blend some just for me: the quinoa will last 3-4 days in the refrigerator.
