• ·0.5 lemonss
• ·80g carrots
• ·80g cucumber

Method

1. 1Quinoa rinsed properly in a sieve first — the coating on it is genuinely bitter and one rinse removes it.
2. 2Simmered 15 minutes, then lid on off the heat for 5. The little white tails should have uncurled.
3. 3Edamame in from frozen for the last two minutes of the boil.
4. 4Tahini, soy, lemon and grated ginger whisked with water into a dressing, poured over while the quinoa is warm.
5. 5Raw carrot and cucumber and the seeds on last.

Rinsing quinoa is the step everybody skips and the reason people think they do not like it.
