Place the quinoa in a fine strainer. Rinse it under plenty of water. Add two times its volume of water in a pan. Add salt. Bring to a boil. Cook covered for 3 minutes. Remove from the flame and let it 10 minutes to absorb the water. Drain in a strainer.

Wash the parsley and the mint. Shred, dry and chop them very finely.

Drop the tomatoes into boiling water and cook for 40 seconds then rinse under cold water. Remove their skin. Cut into quarters and deseed. Chop the pulp with a knife.

Chop the onions and their stalks very finely.

Pour the lime juice into a salad bowl. Dissolve a little salt in it. Whisk with the olive oil. Add the well-drained quinoa and mix. Let sit for 15 minutes.
