Harvested my first fennel bulb...

Now what? I found this recipe.

My changes were:

I made a half recipe, so, only half of a sweet potato, and one bulb of fennel, only 2 cloves of garlic, minced.

Also:

I added the stems of the fennel
I added some swiss chard
Instead of four big chiles, I used one dried thai dragon chile, cut up.
I used pepitas (the green squash / pumpkin seeds) instead of the big, white pumpkin seeds

To use the swiss chard, I roasted the ribs with the other veggies:

I cooked the green parts of the chard briefly, separately, and added them along with the london rocket, when the roasted veggies were caramelized.


I used the leafy parts of the fennel, along with some lemon slices, to infuse the halibut with some flavor.

Turned out pretty darn good!

I think I went a little overboard with the rocket though. It kind of dominated the flavor. Next time I'd scale it back a little bit.


BTW this is where I got my london rocket.

Yes, I washed it thoroughly. ;c )
