Ingredients

• 500 g Tomato - Hybrid
• 250 g Cucumber
• 1 kg Quinoa
• 200 g Black Salt

Instructions

1. 1. Rinse 1 cup of quinoa thoroughly under cold water to remove its natural bitter coating.
2. 2. In a medium saucepan, combine rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
3. 3. Once boiling, add a handful of fresh epazote leaves to the saucepan, reduce the heat to low, and cover the pan. Simmer for about 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
4. 4. Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes. Discard the epazote leaves and fluff the quinoa gently with a fork.
5. 5. While the quinoa is cooling, dice 500 grams of fresh tomatoes, peel and dice 1 cucumber, and finely chop 1 green pepper.
6. 6. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced tomatoes, cucumber, and green pepper.
7. 7. In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and a pinch of kala namak (black salt) to create the dressing.
8. 8. Pour the dressing over the quinoa mixture and toss until everything is well combined and evenly coated.
9. 9. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
