Quinoa With Apples And Cashews

Celebrity chef Graham Elliot shares his recipe for Quinoa With Apples And Cashews from his cookbook Cooking Like A Master Chef.
Directions
Yield: Serves 6
- In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. When hot, toast the quinoa for about 5 minutes, stirring continuously. Add 3 cups of hot water and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat low, cover the pot, and simmer for about 15 minutes, until all the liquid has been absorbed. Remove the heat and let the quinoa stand for about 5 minutes.
- Fluff the quinoa with a fork and add the apples, apple juice, lemon juice and vinegar. Set aside for about 15 minutes to give the flavors time to develop.
- Add the cashews, shallot, parsley, chives and tarragon and toss to mix. Add the extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve warm or let the quinoa cool to room temperature before serving.
