    ###Instructions

    **Make the black beans**

    1. Peel and finely chop the onion
    1. Put the pan onto a medium heat and add 1 tbsp oil. Add the onion with a big pinch of salt and fry for 4-5 minutes, until soft. Peel and chop the garlic, add to the pan with the coriander, chili and cinnamon and fry for 2 minutes until fragrant. Pour the beans with their liquid into the pan. Stir through the cacao powder. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 15 minutes until thickened and saucy. If it gets too thick, add a splash of water

    **Prepare the cabbage**

    1. Shred the cabbage and add to a mixing bowl with the juice from ½ lime and a big pinch of flakey salt. Massage the cabbage for a couple of minutes to soften it. Roughly chop the coriander and stir it through the cabbage. Taste and season to perfection

    **Prepare the tofu**

    1. Cut the tofu into 2cm cubes
    1. Put a pan onto high heat and add 1 tbsp oil. Once hot, fry the tofu for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crunchy round the edges

    **Make the tahini dressing**

    1. Add the tahini to a bowl, squeeze in the juice from ½ lime, then add the water in batches, whisking well with as much water as necessary to get a thick cream consistency. Season with a big pinch of sea salt

    **Assemble the bowl**

    1. Cook the quinoa as per instructions on the packet
    1. Divide the quinoa between the bowls and top with the tofu, black beans, cabbage, cherry tomatoes, pickled onions. Drizzle over the tahini and finish with more coriander

  2. This is an assault to the eyes. Not to mention a blatant plug for BOSH.TV.

    I’m a simple man. I like cooking instructions and ingredients in my GIFRECIPE. You want protein?? Put some bloody meat in there!

    Yeah that wave of brown and black goo at the beginning is not… Appealing to my eyes. It looks differently different to my eye.
