BRAISED FENNEL WITH CARROTS AND POTATOES
The slightly aniseed taste of fennel is a great match with carrots and potatoes, so I combined them all in this original recipe. It's a real treat served as a side dish with roast pork and gravy!

Steps:
- Cut the top off the fennel, reserving feathery leaves.
- Chop feathery leaves finely and reserve.
- Cut fennel into quarters, remove core and any tough outer layers, and slice finely.
- Melt butter in a large saucepan or dutch oven.
- Add garlic, fennel, carrots, onion and potato, together with ground fennel, salt and pepper.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and the onions and fennel are beginning to soften and turn transparent.
- Add chicken stock, wine and fennel leaves and heat until simmering.
- Lower heat, cover and simmer gently for 20-30 minutes, or until carrots and potatoes are soft.
- Remove cover, increase heat and allow to boil briskly for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potato is broken down into an almost'mashed' consistency, but still with a little texture- the remaining liquid should be well thickened with the potato.
- Taste and add extra seasoning if required.
