Gurkerl Küche
Nussiger toskanischer Farro (Dinkelreis) trifft auf im Backrohr mit Honig und frischem Thymian karamellisierte Karotten, würzigen Pecorino Romano, knackigen Rucola und geröstete Walnüsse. Ein herbstlicher Hauptspeisensalat nach toskanischer Art.
Preparation method
Prepare the Roasted Carrots & Farro
Preheat the oven to 200 °C top/bottom heat. Thoroughly wash, peel, and cut the carrots diagonally into bite-sized batons. Spread them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, then toss with 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, liquid honey, plucked fresh thyme leaves, and a pinch of fine salt and ground black pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes until tender and aromatically caramelized around the edges.
Meanwhile, cook the spelt rice (farro) in a pot of plenty of boiling salted water according to the package instructions for about 20–25 minutes until al dente. Then drain through a sieve, let drain briefly, and allow to cool until lukewarm in a large salad bowl.
Dressing, Nuts & Serving
Roughly chop the walnut kernels and toast them in a non-stick pan without added fat over medium heat for 3–4 minutes until golden brown and fragrant, then set aside on a plate.
Chef's tip
This salad tastes equally wonderful served lukewarm or cold and is perfect for office meal prep made the day before.
For a vegan version, the honey can be replaced with maple syrup and the pecorino swapped for a plant-based hard cheese alternative.
