Plating

Create a vibrant display by arranging the spiced lamb on one side of your bowl, letting it spill over the mound of fluffy quinoa. Place the cooked vegetables on the other side to add a splash of color. Position the boiled egg slices on the top, making sure they are beautifully showcased. The look is rustic yet sophisticated, with each ingredient adding a dash of color and complexity. The finished meal should give a sense of high-protein, hearty earthiness balanced with a bright, nutrient-rich vibrancy from the kale and bell peppers. Garnish with a sprig of fresh coriander.
