Step 1
Rinse the quinoa under cold running water, pour in 400 ml of cold water, add salt to taste, quickly bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until ready (15–20 minutes).

Coarsely chop the cashews and toast them in a dry skillet for 2–3 minutes. Allow to cool completely in the same skillet.

Meanwhile, finely chop the parsley, zest the lemon, and squeeze out the juice. Finely chop the zest. Peel the ginger and grate it on a fine grater.
Step 4
Transfer the quinoa to a deep salad bowl. Add the lemon zest and juice, olive oil, ginger, salt, and pepper to taste.

Press the garlic, add the parsley, and mix well. Top everything with the cashews. Serve the salad warm or cold.
