Recipe: Baked Fennel with Shallots and Spicy Dressing
March 29, 2007 in recipe, vegetable
This was my first attempt at baking fennel and I loved the results. This dish could be dressed up many different ways, but the lovely fennel flavor softens and shines through from the baking. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 2 fennel bulbs
- 4 shallots chopped
- 1 t. sugar
- 3 T. olive oil
- 1 clove of garlic, finely chopped
- 1 inch of ginger finely chopped
- 1 T. sesame oil
- juice of one lemon
- 1/2 t. chili powder
- salt and pepper
- Cut off the base and tops of the fennel bulbs. Cut the bulbs into quarters, then into approximately 1/2 inch slices. Mix the fennel slices, shallots, sugar, and about 2 T. of olive oil. Bake at 325 for 30 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, add 1 T. olive oil, garlic and ginger. Cook over low heat for several minutes. Add all remaining ingredients to taste, bring to a simmer then drizzle over roasted fennel.
- Mix well and serve immediately with all juices.
