Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups mixed tender herbs (such as basil, Thai basil, mint, cilantro, tarragon, and celery leaves), divided
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, divided
1 1/2" piece peeled ginger, sliced
1 garlic clove
7 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups cooked, cooled wheat berries, farro, or brown rice
4 cups chopped mixed summer vegetables (such as bell peppers, eggplant, chiles, zucchini, summer squash, carrots, celery, radishes, and cherry tomatoes)

Steps:

  • Combine 2 cups herbs, 1/4 cup scallions, ginger, and garlic in a mini-processor. Pulse to chop ingredients. Add 4 tablespoons oil, vinegar, and 1/4 cup water and process until a coarse purée forms. Transfer herb sauce to a bowl and stir in sesame seeds. Season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Herb sauce can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until oil just begins to smoke. Add remaining 1/4 cup scallions and wheat berries. Stir-fry until wheat berries are golden brown and slightly crunchy, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Divide wheat berries among bowls.
  • Return skillet to medium-high heat and add remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add vegetables, season with salt and pepper, and stir-fry until brightly colored and crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Add remaining 1 cup herbs and toss to combine. Divide vegetables over wheat berries. Drizzle with herb sauce.

This stir-fry was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more spices or herbs to give it more flavor.

This stir-fry was a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables. They loved the sweet and tangy sauce.

The sauce was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding a little bit of water or broth to thin it out.

I wasn't sure how the zucchini would taste in this stir-fry, but it was actually really good. It added a nice sweetness to the dish.

This stir-fry is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers that were about to go bad, and this was the perfect way to use them up.

The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

The vegetables in this stir-fry were perfectly cooked. They were still slightly crunchy, but not too raw.
