Quinoa Herring Roe Salad



http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




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.

  • 180 g Quinoa
  • 480 ml Water
  • 2 tbsp Herring roe
  • 250 g Fresh fruit, diced
  • 50 g Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 stalk Green onions, chopped
  • 50 ml Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 Limes, juiced
  • 2 tsp Cumin powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Chilli flakes
  1. 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.
  2. Whisk olive oil, lime juice, cumin, salt, and chilli flakes together in a bowl.
  3. 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.

  2. Herring roe sounds... interesting! I don't think we'd find it here, so I will substitute haloumi when I make this delicious salad.

  14. That's one unusual salad that I hadn't come across yet. Looks incredible and I want a spoon of it now.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Ooo - fancy! And what a neat addition!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I 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 :)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Simple and unique, honestly i never have roe, very healthy salad indeed !

    ReplyDelete
  18. Healthy indeed and so pretty too. I'll have to keep an eye out for the herring roe.

  19. I only tried some crab roe but that herring roe sounds yummy ;D Love this colorful and healthy salad !

    ReplyDelete
  20. Hi Angie,
    A lovely beautiful salad! I have never had caviar before, always wondering how they actually taste like!

    ReplyDelete
  21. 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?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Lovely quinoa salad my friend :)
    Yum!

  23. A lovely salad Angie. Great for a special occasion too!

    ReplyDelete
  24. You've got me ready to pull out the quinoa, Angie, this looks so pretty and delicious!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Great flavors, colors and textures going on in that salad!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Lovely salad with healthy ingredients, nice :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. This is probably the most unique way we have seen quinoa used!! Must be amazing!

    ReplyDelete
  28. A hearty and tasty looking quinoa salad.

    ReplyDelete
  29. What 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.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I have not made the leap as yet and tried roe-In your salad I might just do it.

    ReplyDelete
  31. @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.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Very interesting and delicious a delicious salad.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Angie this looks great and I love quinoa!

    i can imaging the fragile caviar that blasted when i eat the salad....
    delicacy!

    ReplyDelete
  35. This is such an unusual sounding salad...it must have a lovely texture between the quinoa and the roe.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I 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 :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. Ooh, a nice savoury treat.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I 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!

  57. Quinoa! So healthy and nutricious! You really know how to prepare it. I need a tip or two as I still haven't learned how to do it properly. Adding herring seems a very good idea. Like that you get a proper meal. X
