Preparation

Step 1

Cook the spelt by following the instruction on the packet.These may vary.
Generally, you should thoroughly rinse the spelt in running water (similar to rice) and bring it to the boil from cold water. Leave to boil covered for about 20 minutes, add a tablespoon of salt. Once the spelt is cooked, drain it and leave it to cool down a little.
Meanwhile wash the tomatoes, cut them in half, and place them in a salad bowl.
TIP: Roughly remove the seeds from the tomatoes by gently squeezing the cut tomatoes with your hands.
Add the rocket (coarsely torn) and the Parmesan shavings. Add the spelt, a little salt and pepper, a generous splash of extra virgin olive oil and the balsamic vinegar. Stir well and serve.
