Directions
- Lightly toast fennel seeds in a pan and lightly crush. In a large bowl, combine fennel seeds, vinegar, oil, honey, salt, mustard & reserved juice. Taste for seasoning.
- Trim the fennel bulbs, reserving any of the little feathery fronds, and remove any tough outer leaves. Quarter the bulbs and cut out the central core. Finely slice the fennel, lengthways, and toss it into the bowl containing the dressing. Add the onion, orange slices and mint or parsley.
- Spread the salad on a platter and top with sliced beets, cheese, and reserved fennel fronds.
