BAKED FENNEL WITH PARMESAN



Baked Fennel with Parmesan image

A very simple but totally delicious dish. Fennel is baked with cream, creme fraiche and parmesan cheese. An ideal accompaniment to many tomato based italian dishes as the creaminess balances nicely with the tomato.

Provided by RUPERTLSSMITH

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 fennel bulbs
1 tablespoon butter
¾ cup half-and-half cream
¾ cup creme fraiche
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Cut the base off of the fennel bulbs, and cut a cone shape into the base to remove the core. You can see the core because it is whiter than the surrounding green. This is optional, but helps the fennel cook faster. Slice the fennel vertically (upright) into 1/4 inch thick slices.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fennel, and fry for about 5 minutes. Stir in the half-and-half and creme fraiche until well blended. Transfer to a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
  • Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden brown and the fennel is tender enough to pierce with a fork.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fennel: Look for fennel bulbs that are firm and heavy for their size, with tightly packed layers and no signs of bruising or damage.
  • Trim the fennel properly: Remove the tough outer layer of the fennel bulb and any wilted or discolored leaves. Cut off the root end and slice the bulb in half lengthwise.
  • Season the fennel well: Fennel has a mild flavor, so it's important to season it well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices, such as garlic, thyme, or rosemary.
  • Roast the fennel until tender: The fennel should be roasted until it is tender when pierced with a fork, but not so long that it becomes mushy. The roasting time will vary depending on the size of the fennel bulbs.
  • Serve the fennel immediately: Roasted fennel is best served immediately, while it is still warm and tender. It can be enjoyed as a side dish, appetizer, or even as a main course.

Conclusion:
