Preferably child-friendly

fennel soup?

Slice very thinly (sharp knife or mandolin.)
Dress with vinaigrette and good squeeze of orange juice and olives.
Allow to marinade for maybe half an hour before serving.

halve or quarter it and roast it with other veg

Nothing - it is horrible stuff. You might be able to do something interesting with it, but not yummy.

Keep 'em coming

Delia has a recipe for roasted red peppers stuffed with fennel, in her vegetarian collection. Not that I have ever made it, as I hate the stuff.

easy option: roast in olive oil and then dress with lemon juice

more complicated: slice very finely, add clove of garlic chopped, zest of half a lemon, juice of half a lemon, tiny bit of sliced chilli (optional), loads of olive oil and roast for 20 mins covered in foil, take foil off and roast until done (5- 10 min or so, depending on oven). use as sauce for pasta.

Hello Twocats, howare you?
Your more complicated option has me drooling
WHY didn't I buy more pasta this morning?

Hello twoticky! - still pregnant, but at least not working now! How are you?

the recipe is from the Eagle cookbook - one of my faves.

We're okay How many weeks now?

This week I'm planning to make a roasted squash and fennel soup. Looks like we may have the same veg supplier?!

all with riverford, hands up, please

Fennel risotto is absolutely devine, especially on a misty autumnal night!

I can't find the recipe but it's in Jamie Oliver's Taste of Italy cook book. Highly recommended.
