Ingredients for Summer Vegetable Stir-Fry
3 cups mixed tender herbs (such as basil, Thai basil, mint, coriander, tarragon, and celery leaves), divided
1/2 cup thinly sliced spring onions, divided
1 1/2" piece peeled ginger, sliced
1 garlic clove
110ml vegetable oil, divided
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
375g cooked, cooled wheat berries, farro, or brown rice
750g chopped mixed summer vegetables (such as peppers, aubergine, chillies, courgette, summer squash, carrots, celery, radishes, and cherry tomatoes)
How to make Summer Vegetable Stir-Fry
Combine 2 cups herbs, 1/4 cup spring onions, ginger, and garlic in a mini-processor. Pulse to chop ingredients. Add 60ml oil, vinegar, and 60ml 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 40g spring onions 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 coloured and crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Add remaining 1 cup herbs and toss to combine. Divide vegetables over wheat berries. Drizzle with herb sauce.
