Step by step
Get ahead
Make up to 2 hrs ahead.
- Rinse the quinoa then place in a pan with 400ml water and a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside for 10 minutes, while you continue. Drain and run under cold water to cool.
- Heat ½ tablespoon of the oil in a small nonstick frying pan and fry the seeds for 2-3 minutes until golden. Set aside.
- Trim and coarsely grate the broccoli, including the stalk. Shred the Brussels sprouts finely, trim and finely slice the spring onions, and roughly chop the coriander.
- Peel and crush the garlic and mix with the lime juice, honey, the remainder of the sesame oil and the soy or tamari.
- Combine the quinoa, vegetables, coriander and prawns. Pour in the dressing, stir to coat then scatter with seeds. Serve with lime wedges.
