Press "Saute" on the Instantpot. Heat a tbsp of Ghee and splutter 1/2 tsp of Cumin Seeds and a Bay Leaf. Add 3 chopped Green Chillies, an inch of Ginger, finely minced and a finely chopped Onion. Saute till the onions turn light brown.
Add 1/2 cup of diced Carrots, 1/2 cup of chopped Green Beans, 1/2 cup of Peas, a chopped Tomato and cook for a minute.
Take 1/2 of Quinoa and 1/2 cup of Moongdal in a bowl. Wash, drain and keep aside.
Now add the Quinoa, Moongdal, 3 cups of Water, Salt to taste, a tsp of Turmeric Powder, 1/2 tsp of Coriander Powder, 1/2 tsp of Red Chilli Powder, a tsp of Garam Masala Powder, mix well and deglaze the pot. Switch off the Instantpot.
Close the lid and turn the vent to "Sealing". Select "Manual" option and set the time for 5 minutes. Once the Instantpot beeps, allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes before removing the lid.
Open the lid, squeeze 1/2 a Lemon's juice over the quinoa. Fluff it up with a fork and garnish with 3 tbsp of chopped Coriander Leaves.
Serve warm with yogurt / raita.
