Cooking
- 1Prepare the ingredients: measure the quinoa, cut the cheese into small cubes or thin slices, and roughly chop the cashews with a knife.
- 2Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add the cashews and toast for 1–2 minutes, stirring often, until they smell fragrant. Transfer them to a plate.
- 3Add the quinoa to the same skillet. Fry for 3–4 minutes, stirring, so it gets hot and slightly dries at the edges.
- 4Add the cheese and cook for another 1–2 minutes until it starts to soften and lightly brown.
- 5Remove from the heat, add the cashews, season with salt and black pepper to taste, mix, and serve right away. Top with herbs if you like.
