Instructions to make Quinoa Salad:
- Chop the ends off the celery sticks - the white bit at the bottom and the top part with the leaves. Wash the tomato, chilli, radishes and celery stalks with cold water and leave aside
- Place the quinoa in boiling water and simmer for 15 minutes or when soft. Rinse with cold water until cool and leave to drain
- Separate the parsley and coriander leaves from the stems and chop the leaves very, very fine. Place in a bowl of cold water
- Do the same for the mint leaves but chop half as finely as they have a tendency to dry up. Place the chopped mint leaves together with the parsley and coriander in the bowl of water
- Remove the chopped herbs from the bowl of water with your hands a fistful at a time and drop in a sieve. Only pick up the bits floating in the water. Leave to drain thoroughly
- Chop the tomato into very fine cubes and place in a large salad bowl. Before placing into the bowl, squeeze the excess juice out of the tomato
- Chop the chilli, radishes and celery sticks - again, very very fine - and add to the bowl with the tomato. Make sure that there is no excess water. You may need to tip the bowl to remove any water leftover
- Add just a few dashes of salt, the cumin powder and the lemon juice to the salad bowl and mix
- Ensuring the herbs are well-drained, add these to the salad bowl, then the quinoa, a generous amount of olive oil and mix together
- As a final option, you can add a couple of drops of your choice of hot sauce to the salad. Don't add anything too vinegary like Tabasco or anything with added flavour or you'll ruin it. I like to use American hot sauces like Blair's After Death or Dave's Insanity. If in doubt, try a little bit set aside to make sure you're happy with it.
- Serve immediately or store in the fridge covered with cling film for later use
