Three-grain Salad

Introduction from Derval O’Rourke
Quinoa is not the only grain I eat for lunch. I love brown rice, wild rice and basmati too. I often purposely cook more rice than I need, so that I have leftovers to play with. If you’re precooking grains to be used in a cold salad, remember to cool the cooked grains as quickly as possible and store them in the fridge until you need them. It is true that making this Three-Grain Salad means being prepared. But if you can do a little planning and have all of the ingredients to hand, I promise it will be worth your while.
Ingredients
Method
Store all of the cooled ingredients separately in the fridge until needed.
When you are ready to serve, toss the cooled ingredients together in a large bowl. Divide the salad between serving plates. Sprinkle over the seeds and mint. Squeeze over some lemon juice and serve without delay.
