This simple and colourful quinoa salad is ridiculously good for you, tasty, versatile and so simple to prepare with cherry tomatoes, fruits and herring roe. It's perfect for potluck or anytime really!
Herring roe is in truth the milets, which is from male fish, in other words, it's herring sperm. Leave it out if you are a vegetarian.

- Bring quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Whisk olive oil, lime juice, cumin, salt, and chilli flakes together in a bowl.
- Combine quinoa, tomatoes, diced fruits, and green onions together in a salad bowl. Pour dressing over quinoa mixture. Toss to coat and season with salt and black pepper. Serve immediately.
Dear Angie, I would love this salad. I love roe. Blessings dearest. Catherine xo
ReplyDeleteHerring roe sounds... interesting! I don't think we'd find it here, so I will substitute haloumi when I make this delicious salad.
ReplyDeleteA healthy and indulgent salad!
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Rosa

ReplyDeleteI love the herring roe in your salad but it is very expensive here. Please share with me :)
ReplyDeleteMouthwatering, colourful dish!

ReplyDeleteHealthy and refreshing salad...perfect for the heat here...love the addition of roe.
ReplyDeleteThat's one unusual salad that I hadn't come across yet. Looks incredible and I want a spoon of it now.
ReplyDeleteOoo - fancy! And what a neat addition!
ReplyDeleteI would go for quinoa salad anytime. I might leave roe out though. I am not vegetarian but I guess it is more of a texture thing. But you are right, with simple herbs and tomatoes, this is a nice, filling salad! Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteSimple and unique, honestly i never have roe, very healthy salad indeed !
ReplyDeleteHealthy indeed and so pretty too. I'll have to keep an eye out for the herring roe.
ReplyDeleteSam
I only tried some crab roe but that herring roe sounds yummy ;D Love this colorful and healthy salad !
ReplyDeleteHi Angie,
ReplyDeleteA lovely beautiful salad! I have never had caviar before, always wondering how they actually taste like!
Oh this is a beautiful display of culinary art at its very best...such pops of color and texture here...not to mention nutritive value!!...Two questions for you Angie...1) Which "fruits" do you recommend here in this salad to compliment the herring roe? and 2) I presently have no herring roe.,..but a small jar of black "oeufs de lompe" in the fridge here on the Swiss/French border...Should I wait until I can find the "real deal"?...Is it very difficult to find or dauntingly expensive?
ReplyDeleteLovely quinoa salad my friend :)
ReplyDeleteYum!
Cheers

A lovely salad Angie. Great for a special occasion too!
ReplyDeleteYou've got me ready to pull out the quinoa, Angie, this looks so pretty and delicious!
ReplyDeleteGreat flavors, colors and textures going on in that salad!
ReplyDeleteLovely salad with healthy ingredients, nice :)
ReplyDeleteThis is probably the most unique way we have seen quinoa used!! Must be amazing!
ReplyDeleteA hearty and tasty looking quinoa salad.
ReplyDeleteWhat an unusual salad. herring roe and fruit? I have trouble placing herring roe flavor wise right now off the top of my head. But I'll try it :-) A handful of crumbled feta would be nice as well.
ReplyDeleteI have not made the leap as yet and tried roe-In your salad I might just do it.

@glutwinI have used a mix of pear and mango. They went really well with crunchy, mildly salted caviar. The herring roe ain't expensive and I am sure that your black lumpfish caviar would work just great.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting and delicious a delicious salad.
ReplyDeleteAngie this looks great and I love quinoa!
ReplyDeletei can imaging the fragile caviar that blasted when i eat the salad....
ReplyDeletedelicacy!
This is such an unusual sounding salad...it must have a lovely texture between the quinoa and the roe.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine how tasty the salty roe would be in this salad of sweet fruit and savory vegetables! What a unique and lovely salad. I'm planning on making quinoa tonight as a side for our stir-fry :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, a nice savoury treat.
ReplyDeleteI should be consentrating more on healthy salads like yours instead of craving chocolate desserts! Never had herring roe mixed with quinoa. Very different from any other salads I have had! I would love to try it!
