Tea poached turtle bean and quinoa salad (T) March 22, 2020

This recipe is from the T themed dinner, and is based on this one at Detoxinista.

I cooked the turtle beans and quinoa in Russian caravan tea instead of water. The dressing came from the original recipe, but I used coriander, red capsicum, spring onion and broccolini instead of the veg they listed.

Tea smoked chicken (T) March 22, 2020

This recipe is from the T themed dinner.

I didn’t stick strictly to a recipe, but based it mostly on the first of these links, with the additional ingredients from the second (I used orange rind, star anise and cinnamon stick, with green tea that was infused with Pandan).
