Fennel Salad

A seriously simple fennel salad recipe, with pomegranate molasses and sumac dressing. Use a mandoline or sharp knife to slice the fennel as thinly as possible.

Serves 4 (as a side) Prep 20 mins

Ingredients

2 Fennel Bulbs, very thinly sliced

2 tbsp Rapeseed Oil

1 tbsp Pomegranate Molasses

1/2 Lemon, juiced

1 tbsp Sumac spice

A hand full of Mint Leaves

Method

1/Put the thinly sliced fennel into a bowl full of iced water to soak for 10 minutes, then drain really well – this makes it super crunchy and crisp. Tip onto a platter or serving plate.

2/Whisk together the oil, pomegranate molasses, lemon juice, ½ the sumac and some seasoning. Pour all over the fennel and then sprinkle over the remaining sumac and scatter with mint leaves.
