This farro and tomato salad with fish-sauce vinaigrette is a refreshing, dairy-free dish that balances deep savoury notes with bright, seasonal produce. The nutty texture of the semi-pearled farro provides a satisfying base for the juicy heirloom tomatoes and crisp cucumbers, while charred spring onions add a sophisticated smoky depth. It is a wonderful example of how humdrum grains can be transformed into a vibrant centrepiece with just a few bold ingredients.
Ideal as a healthy midweek lunch or a sophisticated side for a summer barbecue, this salad is as versatile as it is nutritious. The punchy dressing, featuring nam pla and white wine vinegar, cuts through the richness of the grains beautifully. For the best flavour, ensure your tomatoes are at room temperature before assembly, allowing their natural sweetness to shine against the salty vinaigrette.

How to make Farro and Tomato Salad with Fish-Sauce Vinaigrette
Whisk garlic, fish sauce, vinegar, sugar, and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl until sugar dissolves.
Cook farro in a medium pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until tender, 20–25 minutes. Drain; transfer to a large bowl.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook spring onions, turning occasionally, until charred all over, about 4 minutes. Transfer to bowl with farro. Add both types of tomatoes, cucumbers, parsley, and tarragon and toss to combine. Add vinaigrette and toss again to coat; season with pepper.
Vinaigrette can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and chill.
