Delicious flavours. I used soft Parnoosh dates from Iran, freshly ground cardamom, sea salt, no oil as I didn't see that part, plus the rest of the ingredients. It is important to wash your quinoa very well rubbing it between your fingers. The toasted almonds made this dish in my opinion. I may make this again.
