Ingredients
Scale
- 2 fennel bulbs (remove the stems and slice the bulb)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (, extra virgin)
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon spice with a lift (if using any)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 C.
- Clean the fennel by cutting off the root, the fluffy leaves (fronds) leaving you with just the bulb.
- Rinse the bulb clean and thinly slice it in preparation for cooking. How thick or thin you slice it will depend on how long it takes to cook. Don't cut it very thing or it cooks too quickly and may burn.
- In in oven tray, drizzle some extra olive oil directly onto the sheet pan/oven tray.
- Slide one fennel slice with your finger to coast the whole pan or you can use a brush.
- Lay the fennel slices and the fennel slices down after seasoning. Season the top the same way, add another little drizzle of olive oil.
- Bake at 200 for about 25 to 30 minutes. Halfway through take them out and check. If they are dry add a another drizzle oil. That should do it. Return to finish the baking time or until as brown as you want them.
