Quinoa tabbouleh salad

Rating
Type of dish : Starter
To serve : 2
Preparation : 20 min
Cooking : 10 min
Budget : Cheap
From : France
Difficulty : Easy
 
Ingredients :
- 140g quinoa
- 2 small good quality tomatoes
- 1 shallot
- 1 small sprig of fresh mint
- 1 small sprig of coriander
- olive oil
- fresh lemon or lime juice





 
Recipe :
Wash the quinoa and cook in twice its volume of water over a gentle heat in boiling water for 10 minutes (the little white part should come away from the seeds). Remove from the heat and cover, so that the quinoa swells.

Meanwhile, de-seed the tomatoes (peel them if you don't like the skin, but remember all the vitamins are in the skin!) and dice.

Chop the mint, coriander and shallot finely.

Mix all the ingredients together, drizzle the lemon juice and olive oil over (according to taste, but I prefer less oil and more lemon). Mix and refrigerate for 2 hours (an hour and a half is enough, though!).

Season, add any extra oil or lemon juice to taste and enjoy!
