2. 2

   Bring to the boil then turn the heat to low and put the lid on top.

3. 3

   Cook for around 12 minutes until the water has all been absorbed

4. 4

   Remove the lid and let any remaining water evaporate away.

   Turn the cooked quinoa out onto a wide plate, fluff up with a fork and allow to cool

6. 6

   Meanwhile bring another 2 pans of lightly salted water to the boil.

7. 7

   Cook the peas and asparagus in one and the beans in the other for 3-4 minutes so they still have a little bit of bite and aren't too soft

   The beans need their outer case slipped off after cooking so it's easiest to cook those in a seperate pan

   Roughly chop the herbs and in a large bowl gently mix them with the cooled quinoa and vegetables including the tomatoes, reserving some of the herbs for garnish

10. 10

    Add to the bowl the lemon zest, juice, balsamic, agave and oil.
