Ingredients
- 100 g (½ cup) tri-colour quinoa
- ½ head broccoli, stems finely chopped and heads broken into little florets
- 1 red onion, finely diced
- 85 g (½ cup) raisins
- 60 g (½ cup) walnuts, broken into small pieces
- 1 red apple, chopped
- 5 wild garlic leaves, finely sliced
- drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
- large pinch of cracked black pepper
- large pinch of sea salt
- 10 garlic flowers (optional), to garnish
Dressing
- 60 ml (¼ cup) condensed milk
- 60 ml (¼ cup) malt vinegar
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
Instructions
Rinse the quinoa under cold running water for 30 seconds. Place in a small saucepan with 250 ml (1 cup) water and bring to the boil over medium heat. Cover, then reduced the heat to low and simmer for 12-15 minutes or until all the water has evaporated and the grains are tender. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
Place the quinoa, broccoli, onion, raisins, walnuts, apple, wild garlic leaves, a drizzle of oil and the salt and pepper in a bowl and toss to combine well.
To make the dressing, place all the ingredients into a jar, seal and shake vigorously, then pour over the salad. Toss to combine well, then transfer to a serving platter and scatter with garlic flowers if using.
