For an extra layer of flavor, toast the quinoa in a dry pan for a few minutes before cooking. Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as diced carrots, peas, or corn. Adjust the amount of chile-garlic sauce to your preferred spice level. Garnish with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds and a drizzle of sesame oil for added richness.
