  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 6 cups Vegetable Stock
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 cup finely chopped onions
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped celery
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 cups whole grain farro (or spelt), picked over for impurities and rinsed
  • 2 cups diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups quartered cremini mushrooms
  • 1/4 pound okra, halved lengthwise
  • 1/4 pound whole baby carrots, tops removed and scrubbed
  • 1 small zucchini, sliced into 1/2-inch thick half circles
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

  • In a medium saucepan, bring the vegetable stock to a simmer. Lower the heat to keep warm.
  • In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions, peppers, and celery and cook until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and farro to the pan and cook, stirring, until the faro is toasted and coated with oil, 3 to 4 minutes.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring, until the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding the stock, 2 cups at a time, as the previous addition is absorbed, cooking and stirring, until all the stock is used and the grains are plump and tender.
  • Remove from the heat and discard the bay leaf. Stir in the parsley and adjust the seasoning,to taste. Serve immediately.
