Postopek
Korak za korakom
- 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Približno 5 min

In a large bowl, combine the broccoli florets, bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion.
Približno 2 min

Drizzle the vegetables with the olive oil for roasting, then sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
Približno 1 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Ensure all vegetables are evenly coated for best roasting.
- 4
Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Približno 1 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Do not overcrowd the pan, as this will steam the vegetables instead of roasting them. Use two sheets if necessary.

Roast for 20 minutes, then add the cherry tomatoes to the baking sheet and continue roasting for another 10-15 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Približno 35 min
Kuharjeva opomba: The cherry tomatoes cook faster, so adding them later prevents them from becoming mushy.

While the vegetables roast, combine the farro and water in a medium saucepan.

Bring the farro to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
Približno 25 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Farro should be chewy, not mushy. Check for doneness around the 20-minute mark.

Drain any excess water from the cooked farro and let it cool slightly.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, fresh parsley, dried oregano, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper for the dressing.
Približno 2 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Allow the salad to rest for at least 10 minutes for the flavors to meld before serving.
Približno 10 min
Kuharjeva opomba: This salad tastes even better after resting, allowing the farro to absorb the dressing.
