Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a wok with a lid, add the onion and garlic, and fry for 5 mins until softened, then lift from the wok with a slotted spoon. Add the squash, stir round the wok until it starts to colour, then add the broccoli. Sprinkle in 3 tbsp water and the thyme, cover the pan and steam for about 5 mins until the veg is tender.
  • Meanwhile, tip quinoa into a bowl and fluff it up. Add the parsley, cranberries, seeds (if using), cooked onion and garlic, and balsamic vinegar, and mix well. Toss through the vegetables with the feta. Will keep in the fridge for 2 days.

SPICY QUINOA SALAD WITH BROCCOLI, CILANTRO AND LIME

The grassy flavor of quinoa works well with cilantro in this main-dish salad. I love the versatility of quinoa. It can be the building-block ingredient for a salad, as it is in this main-dish salad, or it can be added to salads in smaller amounts, almost as a garnish. Its grassy flavor marries well with cilantro, itself an herb with a grassy, though more pungent, taste. I added sieved hard-boiled eggs for protein - though you could leave them out if you want to make a vegan version of this dish, and toasted pumpkin seeds for crunch. Another ingredient that contributes crunch as well as color is the soaked split red lentils. They also contribute more protein to an already high-protein grain. They are optional - make this salad whether or not you have the lentils.

  • Prepare the Lemon Yogurt Dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Taste and season with more salt as desired.
  • Prepare the salad: While you are prepping the vegetables, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. While it heats, fill a large bowl with ice water. Add the broccoli florets to the boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, about 1 minute. With a slotted spoon, transfer the broccoli to the ice water, leaving the boiling water in the pot. Drain the broccoli and transfer it to a kitchen towel–lined baking sheet. Lightly pat dry.
  • Return the water in the pot to a boil. Add the quinoa and cook until slightly al dente, about 12 minutes. Drain through a fine-mesh sieve so that the quinoa does not slip through. Transfer the drained quinoa to a large bowl. Toss with 2 tablespoons yogurt dressing and remaining 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Add 1/4 cup of the dressing, broccoli, shallot, parsley, tarragon, and almonds. Toss to combine. Taste and add additional salt and/or pepper to taste. Enjoy immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
