Two kinds of cheese—nutty Gruyere and savoury Parmesan—enrich this whole-grain vegetarian dish with creaminess and richness. The quinoa gets cooked in a larger-than-usual amount of liquid to help enhance the creamy, risotto-like effect, and we rinse the grains before they go into the pan to help remove some of the bitterness.
