Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons - olive oil
- 1 - yellow onion chopped
- 3 - carrots peeled and chopped
- 2 - celery stalks chopped
- 2 cups - seasonal veggies such as sweet potatoes, green beans, butternut squash, potatoes, bell pepper, zucch chopped
- 1 teaspoons - sea salt divided
- 6 cloves - garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoons - curry powder
- 1/2 teaspoons - dried thyme
- 28 ounces - can diced tomatoes
- 4 cups - vegetable broth
- 2 cups - water
- 2 - bay leaves
- 1/2 teaspoons - red pepper flakes
- 2 cups - kale chopped
- - freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoons - lemon juice
- 1/2 cups - farro
Directions:
1. Warm 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the chopped onion, carrot, celery, seasonal vegetables and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onion has softened and is turning translucent, about 6 to 8 minutes.
2. Add the garlic, curry powder and thyme. Cook until fragrant while stirring frequently, about 1 minute. Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juices and cook for a few more minutes, stirring often.
3. Pour in the broth and water. Add 1/2 teaspoon more salt, 2 bay leaves and the red pepper flakes. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper. Raise the heat and bring the mixture to a boil, then partially cover the pot and reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
4. Add the farro and cook for 25 minutes, then remove the lid and add the chopped greens. Continue simmering for 5 minutes or more, until the greens have softened to your liking.
Remove the pot from heat and remove the bay leaves. Stir in the lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Taste and season with more salt, pepper and/or red pepper flakes. (You might need up to ½ teaspoon more salt, depending on your vegetable broth and your personal preferences.) Divide into bowls and enjoy.
