Rinse the quinoa under cold running water and place in a pan. Pour in the 2 cups of salted water and cook on a medium heat until boiling. Then reduce to a simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until tender and the liquid is fully absorbed.

Next, cook the frozen peas for around 7 minutes or until soft, setting aside once done.

Stir in the rice and season with the curry powder and the soy sauce.

Add in the pineapple, the peas, spring onions and the cashews, stirring regularly.
