Pour the vegetable oil into a large frying pan and place on a medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and fry for 2 minutes, stirring as you go
Add your first Teaspoon Club spice packet and stir well. Fry for a further minute or so until the spices are fragrant and the onion has started to soften
Add the quinoa, vegetable stock, black beans, chopped tomatoes, and sweetcorn to the pan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and let the quinoa simmer until cooked. This should take around 15-20 minutes. Remove from the heat and cover the pan to allow the quinoa to steam for five minutes. Fluff through with a fork and set aside to cool a little
Add the lime juice and avocado to the quinoa and stir through. Season with plenty of salt and pepper to taste
