Ingredients
Method
- Rinse the pearled farro under cold water and transfer to a medium pot with 4 cups of water or vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until tender.
- While the farro cooks, prepare the vegetables and herbs: dice the cucumber, halve the tomatoes, mince the onion, and chop the parsley and mint.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
- Once the farro is cooked, drain any excess liquid and spread it on a baking sheet to cool for 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and add half of the dressing.
- Add the cucumber, tomatoes, onion, parsley, and mint to the bowl. Toss gently to combine and pour the remaining dressing over the salad. Fold in the feta cheese and serve.
