How To Make egyptian farro salad
-
1Rinse pearled farro under cold water to remove any powdery residues that might cover the grains after it has been processed and drain well.
-
2In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, add drained farro, vegetable broth and salt; stir well and bring to a boil.
-
3Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 30 minutes or until the farro is tender and the liquid is absorbed - if it’s not cooked and the liquid is almost gone, add more broth.
-
4Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette by combining all the ingredients in a measuring cup or a small bowl. Whisk and set aside.
-
5When the farro is nice and tender, remove from the heat and drain the grains in a colander, stirring often.
-
6To assemble the salad - In a large bowl, add arugula leaves, chickpeas, farro, cucumber, feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, red onions, radishes, pistachios, parsley and mint.
-
7Gently toss until the ingredients are nicely mixed and serve immediately with the vinaigrette.
