Ingredients
- 1 small onion diced
- 250 g button mushrooms
- 1 clove garlic
- 50 g large handful kale stems removed, and leaves thinly sliced
- 100 g quinoa
- 250 ml vegetable stock
- 3-4 baby pumpkins 350g each or less
- Oil salt & pepper to taste
For serving
- 80 g plain yogurt seasoned with salt and pepper
- a small handful of your favourite nuts, seeds, or crispy onions
Instructions
-
Select sauté and add a drizzle of oil followed by the onion. Sauté the onion for 2 minutes until soft and lightly golden.
-
Add the mushrooms and sauté until their liquid has cooked out, then add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds more.
-
Press cancel, then remove the vegetables from the inner pot, and wipe clean.
-
Add the quinoa to the inner pot and pour the vegetable stock over, ensuring all the quinoa is submerged in the stock.
-
Place the pumpkins into the air frying basket (you can fit 3-4 depending on their size) and place the basket on top of the quinoa.
-
Lock the lid with the pressure cooking cover in place. Select Pressure Cook, and set the time for 2 minutes with a natural pressure release. Once the cooking time is up, allow the pressure to release for 5 minutes, then quick release the remaining pressure.
-
Remove the pumpkins, and the air frying insert, then spoon the quinoa into a bowl with the kale and mushroom filling. Season to taste, stir to combine, then set this aside to keep warm.
-
Once cool enough to handle, slice off the top of the pumpkins and scoop out the seeds to create a hollow cavity. Brush the pumpkins with oil, remove the pressure cooking cover and lock the lid.
-
Select Air Fry and set the temperature to 195°C and time to 10 minutes.
-
When the pumpkins are ready, unlock the lid, and remove them from the Air Frying basket and onto serving plates.
-
Spoon the warm kale, mushroom, and quinoa filling into the pumpkins. Top with a blob of seasoned yogurt, and a sprinkle of your favourite nuts, seeds or crispy onions
-
Serve immediately.
