Farro, Radicchio, and Roasted Beet Salad

This vibrant roasted beetroot, farro and radicchio salad is a masterclass in balancing contrasting flavours and textures. The earthy sweetness of the roasted beetroot pairs beautifully with the characteristic bitterness of radicchio, while the chewy, nutty farro provides a satisfying base. It is a visually stunning vegetarian dish that feels both sophisticated and rustic, making it an excellent choice for a light seasonal lunch or a colourful dinner party side dish.

Packed with wholesome grains and colourful vegetables, this heart-healthy salad is as nutritious as it is delicious. You can use any variety of beetroot for this recipe, from classic purple to golden or candy-striped Chioggia. Preparing the grains and beets in advance makes it a practical option for midweek meal prep or a stress-free weekend gathering served alongside crusty bread and soured cream.

Ingredients for Farro, Radicchio, and Roasted Beet Salad

  • 8 1- to 1 1/2-inch-diameter beets, tops trimmed to 1 inch

  • Vegetable oil

  • 350ml semi-pearled farro or wheat berries

  • 60ml extra-virgin olive oil, divided

  • 4 tablespoons red wine vinegar, divided

  • 1 garlic clove, pressed

  • 300g (packed) thinly sliced quartered radicchio (from about 1 medium head)

  • 80g finely chopped red onion

  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley

  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese (about 110g )

Preheat oven to 177°C. Arrange beets in single layer in 8 x 8 x 2-inch baking dish. Drizzle with vegetable oil. Cover with foil and roast until beets are tender, about 45 minutes. Cool. Trim beets; peel. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.

Cook farro in large saucepan of boiling salted water until tender, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Drain. Transfer to large bowl. Stir 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon vinegar, and garlic into hot farro. Cool to room temperature.

Cut each beet into 6 to 8 wedges. Add beets, radicchio, onion, and parsley to farro; toss to incorporate evenly. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.

Whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil and 45ml vinegar in small bowl. Drizzle over salad. Add feta cheese; toss to coat.

Any type of beet (red, golden, red-and-white-striped Chioggia) would be great in this salad. To avoid stained hands, wear plastic gloves when peeling dark-coloured beets.
