Roasted Fennel
Ingredients
- 1 fennel bulb, fronds removed and cut into wedges
- Drizzle of Belle Farms olive oil
- Pinch of one of our herb salt mixes, Mediterranean Dreams or Salty Sicilian Love
- Freshly ground black pepper
Recipe Notes
A relative of the carrot, fennel is a slightly-sweet root vegetable with a flavor similar to star anise. With just a drizzle of oil and a pinch of seasoning, roasted fennel becomes a unique and tasty side, snack, or salad ingredient.
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°. Prepare a baking sheet, either by lining it with baking parchment or with a thin layer of oil.
- Place the fennel wedges in a bowl. Drizzle with Belle Farms olive oil, just enough to thinly coat the fennel wedges, and then season with herb salt and black pepper to taste. Toss it all together, and then spread the coated wedges evenly onto the baking sheet.
- Roast for 25–35 minutes, or until the wedges are browned on the outside and tender on the inside.
- Allow wedges to cool before eating. Try them as-is, with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese, or as part of a salad. Enjoy!
