Ingredients

• 3 cups mixed tender herbs (such as basil, Thai basil, mint, cilantro, tarragon, and celery leaves), divided
• ½ cup thinly sliced scallions, divided
• 1 ½-inch piece peeled ginger, sliced
• 1 garlic clove
• 7 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

Steps

1. Combine 2 cups herbs, ¼ cup scallions, ginger, and garlic in a mini-processor. Pulse to chop ingredients. Add 4 Tbsp. oil, vinegar, and ¼ cup water and process until a coarse purée forms. Transfer herb sauce to a bowl and stir in sesame seeds. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
2. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until oil just begins to smoke. Add remaining ¼ cup scallions and wheat berries. Stir-fry until wheat berries are golden brown and slightly crunchy, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Divide wheat berries among bowls.
3. Return skillet to medium-high heat and add remaining 2 Tbsp. oil. Add vegetables, season with salt and pepper, and stir-fry until brightly colored and crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Add remaining 1 cup herbs and toss to combine. Divide vegetables over wheat berries. Drizzle with herb sauce.
