  Salad of fennel and mild onion, both thinly sliced, with peeled orange segments* and black olives.
  
  *or any orangey citrus fruit

  It's lovely braized in a little bit of white wine, with a few chopped up shallots and some garlic. Goes well with chicken or lamb.

  I make Prue Leith's cassoulet recipe which uses fennel, chicken, Toulouse sausages and tapenade. Fennel and chicory taste delicious when baked in casserole type recipes.

  I often have a lunch consisting off about 4 different veg with grated cheese.......I find that when I lightly boil fennel it loses it's flavour
  
  I think I might stick to eating it raw..............I imagine it would be good instead of celery in a waldorf salad........made a note to try that !

  Does it taste like liquorice? I'd try it but not if it tastes like that.
