Quinoa (pronounced Keen-wah) has become incredibly popular worldwide as a health food and a high-protein substitute for rice. But what is it called in Malayalam?
Name in Malayalam: ക്വിനോവ (Quinoa) - No native translation exists.
Origin: South America.
Benefit: A rare plant-based source of complete protein.
Pronunciation: Keen-wah (not kwi-no-ah).
Even though it looks like a grain (like dal or rice), it is actually a seed. It is famous because it is one of the few plant foods that contains complete protein (all nine essential amino acids). It is also gluten-free, high in fiber, and packed with vitamins, making it excellent for weight loss and bodybuilding.
Quinoa does not have a native Malayalam name because it originated in South America. In Kerala, it is simply called and written as 'Quinoa' (ക്വിനോവ).
