Instructions

1

Preheat oven to 400 deg F (200 deg C).

2

Cook the farro in boiling salted water for 25 minutes until tender yet chewy; drain and set aside.

3

Toss cubed eggplant and grape tomatoes with a splash of olive oil, salt, and half the shallots on a sheet pan. Roast for 20 minutes until the eggplant is golden brown and creamy.

4

In a skillet, sauté the remaining shallots and artichoke hearts. Add the cooked white beans, the roasted vegetable mixture, and a splash of water to create a loose, savory ragout. Simmer for 5 minutes.

5

Press the feta into the za'atar spice blend to coat it thoroughly. Place the coated feta in the oven for 5 minutes until just softened.

6

To plate, spoon a generous portion of the farro into a shallow bowl. Top with the warm white bean and eggplant ragout. Finish by placing the za'atar-crusted feta in the center, allowing the aromatics to perfume the dish. Serve warm.
