Zucchini-Farro Cakes with Herbed Goat Cheese and Slow-Roasted Tomatoes

For a more time-friendly topper, use fresh grape tomatoes, halved and sprinkled with salt and pepper.

How to Make It

Step 1

To prepare tomatoes, preheat oven to 250°.

Step 2

Combine tomatoes, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl; toss to coat. Arrange tomatoes in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 250° for 3 hours or until very tender, stirring every hour.

Step 3

To prepare cakes, combine zucchini and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a cheesecloth-lined bowl. Let stand 10 minutes. Gather edges of cheesecloth; squeeze zucchini in cloth until barely moist. Combine zucchini, 1/2 teaspoon salt, farro, and next 7 ingredients (through garlic) in a large bowl. Let stand 5 minutes. Shape mixture into 12 (3-inch) patties, about 3/4 inch thick.

Step 4

Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 4 patties; cook 4 minutes on each side or until golden. Repeat in two more batches with remaining oil and patties. Keep warm.

Step 5

To prepare cheese, combine cheese and remaining ingredients in a small bowl, stirring until well combined.

Step 6

Arrange 2 zucchini cakes on each of 6 plates. Top with 1 tablespoon cheese mixture and 1/4 cup tomatoes
