I love this fresh and fruity salad dish. The nuts give a crunch, the apricots are chewy, the pomegranate and carrot is juicy and the lemon ties it all together with the soft quinoa. Delicious

- 1
Toast the hazelnuts lightly in the oven at gas 4 / 180C / 350°F until just a shade darker, then remove their skins

Put the quinoa into a saucepan and cover with just under double its volume of water. Bring to the boil then turn heat to low and let cook for 12 minutes or so with the lid on

All the water should have been absorbed so turn off the heat and remove the lid to let any remaining water evaporate

A lovely fresh summer dish full of goodness! Aduki beans may be labelled as Adzuki or Azuki beans or Oriental Red Beans. I used Essential Organics brand. They come tinned or dry. If using dry you need to soak them overnight before using. They're quite sweet and great in salads. In Asia they're mashed and used as filling for dessert dumplings. If you can't find them in you local shop you can use kidney beans in place of them Vicky@Jacks Free-From Cookbook -
