  • 1 lb firm-ripe mango, peeled, pitted, and cut into 1/2-inch chunks (2 cups)
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch dice

  • 2

    Rinse quinoa in a bowl using 5 changes of water, rubbing grains and letting them settle before pouring off water (if quinoa does not settle, drain in a large sieve after each rinsing).

  • 3

    Cook quinoa in a 4- to 5-quart pot of boiling salted water 10 minutes. Drain in a large sieve and rinse under cold running water.

  • 4

    Set sieve with quinoa over a saucepan containing 1 1/2 inches boiling water (sieve should not touch water) and steam quinoa, covered with a kitchen towel and lid, until fluffy and dry, 10 to 12 minutes.
