Step 1

Cook the quinoa in 600ml water in a pot on a high heat. Bring to the boil with the lid on. Once it boils, move the lid so the steam can escape and simmer till all the water has evaporated.

Step 2

Remove from the heat and leave aside with the lid on for 5-10 minutes till the quinoa puffs up. Allow quinoa to cool fully before mixing salad.

Step 3

Chop the cherry tomatoes in half and defrost the edamame beans/peas by leaving to sit in a bowl of hot water for 10 minutes. Whisk the dressing together in a cup with a fork or with a whisk in a jug.

Step 4

Add all salad ingredients for the salad in a large bowl and dress with the dressing.

Step 5

Top tip: If you are making this ahead of time, we recommend leaving the dressing until just before you serve it, as it will keep better this way.
