Italian Fennel Casserole
CDKitchen https://www.cdkitchen.com
Serves/Makes: 4 | Ready In: 30-60 minutes
1 pound fennel
2 tablespoons oil (preferably olive)
1 large onion, peeled and finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 can (14 ounce size) tomatoes
salt
freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces fresh brown breadcrumbs
2 ounces grated Cheddar cheese
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
First prepare the fennel by discarding any coarse outer leaves and the root base and slice the bulbs very thinly. Keep some of the feathery tops for a garnish.
Heat the oil in a large pan and gently fry the chopped onion and garlic. Add the slices of fennel and cook these for a few more minutes, turning them over in the pan.
Put the tin of tomatoes into a small bowl and break them down slightly with a spoon. (This makes them easier to stir into the fennel.) Add the tomatoes to the fennel and onion mixture and season well.
Cover the pan and simmer for about 10 minutes, then transfer the vegetables to a lightly greased 3 pt. oven-proof dish.
Mix the cheese and breadcrumbs together and sprinkle over the top, then bake the casserole for 15-20 minutes until the top is nice and crisp.
Serve immediately.
