Reduce the temperature to a moderate setting, add the onion and gently fry until soft, sprinkle in cinnamon, turmeric, cumin, chilli flakes, garlic and stir well. Quickly add the stock, chopped tomatoes, a good pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper, stir as the liquid comes to the boil, now place the lid on top, reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove the lid and quickly add the squash pieces, chick peas and ¾ of the mint and coriander, return the lid and simmer for a further 20 minutes.

Rinse the quinoa under cold running water, tip into a pan and add the stock. Place over a medium heat and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until tender and the liquid is absorbed. Mix in pomegranate seeds, chopped mint, coriander, salt and pepper.
