Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup chopped peaches
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped ripe papaya
  • 1/2 cup raw cashew nuts
  • 1/2 tsp flax oil
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp dairy free milk
  • Small pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup quinoa ((rinsed and dried))
  • 1 cup chopped ripe papaya ((for layering))
  • 1 tsp goji berries ((for topping))

Instruction

  • Heat a nonstick pan and add all the ingredients for roasting. Mix gently, cover and cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the flame once you start getting the aroma. (Peaches should not be mashed, the firm pieces should be maintained but at the same time should be soft enough). Take the roasted peaches out in a bowl and refrigerator to cool off.
  • In the meantime combine all the papaya cashew cream ingredients in a food process and puree smooth. (No lumps should be present in the cream).Put the papaya cashew cream in the refrigerator to cool.
  • In the mean time when quinoa is completely dried heat a small dry nonstick pan. Check its right temperature by testing with few quinoa grains. If they start to pop that means the pan is ready.Now add 1-2 tbsp. of quinoa at a time. Cover and let it pop, keep stirring in between to avoid over cooking. Puffed quinoa should be light brown in color as show above in the picture. Repeat the same process for the rest of the quinoa.Let the quinoa be at room temperature to maintain its crunchy texture.
  • Divide all the ingredients into 4 equal parts (except roasted peaches). Roasted peaches would be divided into 8 equal parts.
  • Just before serving start layering in a dessert glass. Put the first layer of roasted peaches, then chopped papaya pieces, puffed quinoa, roasted peaches again now cover the glass with papaya cashew cream completely and lastly garnish this parfait with few goji berries. Serve chilled.
