Ingredients

Cake
2 1/4 lbs quinoa
12 eggs
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Syrup
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
Amaretto, liqour (or whatever is your favorite)

Preparation

Wash the quinoa well, rubbing it in your hands. You must change the water until it gets clear.
Then we boil the quinoa in water (3 measures of water and 1 of quinoa) and strain when it's ready.
Beat the eggs and add them to the quinoa.
Add the butter and the powdered sugar.
When all is mixed, pour the mix in a dish and bake it for 20 minutes.
To make the syrup, boil the water and sugar until it becomes sticky. Add a little liqour of your choice for flavor, such as ammaretto.
When the cake is ready, cut it in 4 pieces and pour the syrup in the cuts.
Bake again for 10 minutes to 180\u00b0 C (350\u00b0 F) and serve.
